Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q32: If an employee participating in a Hajj mission intends to offer a sacrifice, what are the prohibitions that apply to him? And who is the one who must refrain from these prohibitions; is it the one offering the sacrifice, or the one on whose behalf it is offered, such as his family and children, or the agent who slaughters the sacrifice?
A32: Whoever intends to offer a sacrifice must not remove any hair, skin, or nail once the ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah have entered. The one who must refrain from this is the one offering the sacrifice, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sahih Muslim 1977c Reported by Muslim. This ruling does not apply to the agent, nor to the family and children of the one offering the sacrifice whom he includes as partners in his sacrifice.
Q33: An employee participating in a Hajj mission intended to offer a sacrifice but did not form the intention for this act until the seventh day of the month of Dhu al-Hijjah, knowing that he had shaved his head and trimmed his nails during the ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah. Is that valid from him? And what is the last time for forming the intention for one who intends to offer a sacrifice?
A33: His intention for the sacrifice is valid, and there is no specific time for it to be formed. Rather, whenever he intends to offer a sacrifice, he may do so, as long as the time for it has not passed, which is the setting of the sun on the thirteenth day of Dhu al-Hijjah.
As for what he did of shaving his head and trimming his nails before his intention to offer a sacrifice, he owes nothing for that, as it occurred before the intention. It is known that this does not affect the validity of the sacrifice, for it is not among the conditions of its validity that hair and skin not be removed.
A32: Whoever intends to offer a sacrifice must not remove any hair, skin, or nail once the ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah have entered. The one who must refrain from this is the one offering the sacrifice, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
When any one of you intending to sacrifice the animal enters in the month (of Dhu'l-Hijja) he should not get his hair or nails touched (cut).
