Formula

Each share = total meat (kg) ÷ 3. The three shares: (1) your household, (2) relatives, friends, and neighbours, (3) the poor and needy. A cow's meat (~80–120 kg for 7 shares) gives each shareholder roughly 11–17 kg to divide three ways.

Worked example

A bakra yields 18 kg of cleaned meat: each share = 18 ÷ 3 = 6 kg — 6 kg for the family, 6 kg for relatives, 6 kg for the poor. A cow share yielding 35 kg divides into three 11.67 kg portions. Pack the poor's share in 1–2 kg bags so it reaches more families.

Yes — giving more than a third, or even all, to the poor is permissible and rewarded. The three-part division is recommended (mustahab), not obligatory, so generosity beyond it is fine.

A medium bakra (live weight ~35–45 kg) typically yields 15–20 kg of cleaned meat. A cow share (1 of 7) usually yields 30–45 kg depending on the animal's size.
