Question:
Is it permissible to offer hady (the sacrificial animal of the pilgrimage) from other than the livestock of the herd, such as offering clothes or food, and distributing them to the poor of the Haram?
Answer:
This is a change of what is prescribed. Hady is only by slaughtering livestock of the herd as an act of drawing near to Allah, and slaughtering is an act of worship. Distributing food or distributing clothing does not suffice for it; that is charity.
