Is it permissible to intentionally perform some of the rites of the Day of Sacrifice before others without an excuse?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. Some scholars have said that it is not permissible to perform the rites of the Day of Sacrifice out of order, except for one whose situation is like that of the man who asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), saying, “I slaughtered before I realized, and I shaved before I realized.” As for one who intends to do so, it is not permissible for him, and he must observe the order. What is your guidance?

Answer:
This is a mistake. It is permissible to perform them out of order, though observing the order is undoubtedly better. Performing them out of order is permissible among these four acts. As for the statement “I did not realize,” that was said by the one who performed the sa’i before the tawaf, saying, “I did not realize; I performed the sa’i before I performed the tawaf.” As for the other types, I do not recall him saying “I did not realize.”
