==Aims and Objects of Minhaj Welfare Foundation==
Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri laid the foundation stone of Minhaj Welfare Foundation (MWF) to render services in the field of public welfare. The objective behind establishment of this Foundation is to arouse feelings of sympathy in human beings, to create atmosphere of mutual love, brotherhood and to work for the establishment of a real Islamic welfare society by including the less privileged sections in the mainstream. The need of such effort is all the more acute in view of the fact that the developing world lacks proper organized arrangements at the official level contrary to the developed world. The Minhaj Welfare Foundation is engaged in the service of humanity by rising above the distinctions of caste, creed, sex, colour and religion.

==Sacrificial skins==
The Muslim Umma celebrates the day of sacrifice in the pursuit of 'Sunna of Huzrat Abraham" every year. Sacrifice represents that sunna of the Prophet whose observance has been made binding upon the Muslims. One virtue or good is entered in the register of ones functions against every hair of sacrificial animal. There is no limit to its blessings. The meat of sacrifice is halal and the very event of sacrifice has become the means of economy. The sacrificial animals cause growth of markets. If one the one hand, sacrifice is the means to find access to Divinely blessings, it is also instrumental in the availability of meat to the poor and downtrodden on the other. The skins of animals also play important role for the welfare projects of welfare organizations. The Holy Quran not only enjoins upon us to use sacrifice for the purpose of economic activity but Allah Almighty has also ordained such a just method of distribution of meat that it causes happiness to every individual of society. Minhaj Welfare Foundation is busy in spreading this happiness among the poor and less privileged sections of society with your cooperation and active support throughout the world today.
Economic resources are obtained from the collective sacrifices offered at the Markez (Central Secretariat) under the Minhaj Welfare Foundation. MWF offers the sacrifice of about 2400 animals annually at the time of Eid-ul-Azha. People deposit their shares both from inside and outside Pakistan in this collective sacrifice. The animals are bought and sacrificed and meat distributed in accordance with their instructions. Or it is distributed in outskirts of Lahore where the poorest people live. 400 kg meat is distributed among the poor through this campaign. 300 workers of Minhaj Welfare Foundation work hard day and night for 15 days to complete this process successfully, while the skins obtained from this sacrifice are the source of income for Minhaj Welfare Foundation. Allah Almighty be thanked that with His blessings and active participation and encouragement of people, the number of individuals taking part in this collective sacrifice is on the increase with every passing year.
