“Upin” and “Ipin” to be sacrificed for this year’s Aidiladha

TWO cows, named ‘Upin’ and ‘Ipin’ and weighing 800kg and 780kg respectively, are part of a group of 22 high-quality cattle set to be sacrificed at the Tayyib Ranch Qurban Carnival 2025, held in conjunction with this year’s Aidiladha celebrations.

Mohd Sakhedan Sidek, Managing Director of Tayyib Ranch Sdn Bhd, shared that these Limousin cattle will be slaughtered at the carnival site located at Shah Alam Stadium tomorrow.

They were purchased by different buyers for RM20,000 and RM25,000 respectively.

Besides Upin and Ipin, the Qurban offerings include breeds such as Brahman, Charolais, Blonde, and Black Angus, all aged between three and four years.

These cattle come from Kelantan and Terengganu, weigh between 700kg and 1,000kg, and are priced from RM10,000 up to RM45,000.

Mohd Sakhedan noted that the demand for premium sacrificial cattle has been steadily increasing as more people appreciate the value of selecting top-grade animals for Qurban.

He explained that these premium breeds are preferred because they provide more meat and are considered to be of superior quality, making them especially suitable for distribution to those in need (asnaf) as a source of quality nutrition.

In total, 100 cattle will be sacrificed during the Qurban rituals at the carnival site, which runs from tomorrow until Sunday.

Visitors will also have the opportunity to witness Tayyib Ranch’s methods of managing the slaughtering process.

The Tayyib Ranch Qurban Carnival 2025 will continue for 10 days until 8 June, showcasing over 100 cattle with prices ranging from RM4,000 to RM45,000, depending on the breed and the Qurban package selected. —June 6, 2025
