Is one sacrificial animal sufficient for the members of one household?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Umm 'Aishah, says: We are a family and we want to perform the sacrifice. Do the children and the father have to offer a group of sacrificial animals, or is one sacrificial animal sufficient for the entire household?

Answer:
The members of a household offer one sacrificial animal, and it is not offered for each individual. So, praise be to Allah, one sheep is sufficient for a man and his household. Yes.
