Muslims living in United States are sharing the happiness and joy of the Eid celebration with non-Muslims, especially when Muslims sacrifice an animal and share the meat with the poor and needy.
VOA’s Vardha Khalil recently visited a residential area in Silver Spring, Maryland where a local Muslim organization distributed more than 2700 kilos of meat to the community.
Most people standing in line at this residential complex in Silver Spring, Maryland, are from Latin America. And even though they are not Muslims,
today is a special day for them. As in previous years, representatives from the Montgomery County Muslim Federation are including them in their Eid festivities by distributing the meat of sacrificed animals.
Resident Alicia said: "I know their work and their organization. They help the Latin community greatly. They are loving and respectful."
Resident Brian Chavez said: "We are grateful because they come every year and they don’t just give us meat but also other things."
A senior citizen community is the next stop, where the gesture is also appreciated.
Abdul Hai Sheikh has been a volunteer for years. He says such initiatives from the Muslim community are important to bring people from different religions in the United States together. He said: "Help the community here and give something to the underprivileged. And doing so, we can create a better bond between the local community and the Muslim community. There is better understanding."
This year, the Muslim Federation collected twenty-one thousand dollars from the Muslim community to sacrifice animals for Eid and distribute meat in eight different locations.
生活在美国的穆斯林与非穆斯林正一起分享古尔邦节(又称宰牲节)的快乐,特别是当穆斯林将宰牲节用肉与穷人和需要者分享时。
美国之音记者最近来到马里兰州银泉镇的一个居民区,当地的一个穆斯林组织向社区分发了2700多公斤的肉。
在马里兰州银泉镇的这个住宅小区内,大多数排队的人都来自拉丁美洲。尽管他们不是穆斯林,但今天对他们来说是一个特殊的日子。和往年一样,蒙哥马利郡穆斯林联合会的代表们也向他们分发宰牲节用肉。
居民艾丽西亚说:“我知道他们的工作和组织。他们极大地帮助了拉丁社区。他们充满爱心并且有礼貌。”
居民布莱恩·查韦斯说:“我们很感激他们每年都来,他们不仅给我们肉吃,还给我们其他东西。”
老年人社区是下一站,他们在那里也受到欢迎。
阿卜杜勒·哈伊·谢赫多年来一直担任志愿者。他说,穆斯林社区的这些倡议对把美国不同宗教的人聚集在一起很重要。
他说:“帮助这里的社区,给弱势群体一些东西。这样做的话,我们可以在当地社区和穆斯林社区间建立更好的联系。会有更好的理解。”
今年,穆斯林联合会从穆斯林社区筹集了两万一千美元,用于宰牲节用肉,并在八个不同的地方分发。
