Overseas Pakistanis had a tradition to do Qurbani in their dear homeland. At least 2-3 billion in remittances used to come as a result. However, I see a different trend this year
1. The prices of the animals have either remained the same or have become less (don't forget the 45% inflation we have)
2. My friends in Pakistan told me that animals are still in large numbers in the market. This means rich Pakistanis are also not buying
3. Most friends in North America are going for local qurbanis as the price is 300-400 for cow/goat.
4. Pakistanis in Middle East used to visit the country and do Qurbani but they are still pondering
5. Friends in Europe as also going for local options
These trends are very different and therefore thought to find out from other Overseas Pakistanis.
Also a message for our countrymen. Please do qurbani according to Islamic principles especially no cutting of animals in front of each other. It is so disturbing to even see mosques doing ijtami qurbani which is an insult to practice and shows the ignorance of animal rights and Islam.
