The questioner:
Is the 'Udhiyah obligatory for the poor person?
The Shaykh:
The jurists said that it is recommended (mustahabb) for him to make it clear, because it is a religious observance.
The presenter:
Yes.
The Shaykh:
It is among the observances of Islam, so if he borrows money and offers the sacrifice, that would be better. Is that not without obligation? Even the rich person is not obligated to offer the sacrifice according to the correct opinion; rather, it is a confirmed recommended practice (sunnah muakkadah). Yes.
