Slaughtering the 'Id sacrifice in the sacrificer's country or in Makkah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And the Shaykh is not one who performs tamattu' (combining 'Umrah and Hajj with a break between them), and takes his first [sacrifice] in his country, or stands [at 'Arafah] in his country,

Answer:
Yes, this is the case if there is someone among them who is skilled, he can appoint him to slaughter in his neighborhood, in his house. And if there is no one skilled, he can appoint one of the Muslims or one of his relatives to slaughter in their neighborhood, in their house, on their behalf. As for slaughtering in Makkah, this does not achieve the intended purpose, and Makkah is sufficient with the hady (the sacrificial animal of the pilgrimage): the hady of tamattu', the hady of qiran (combining 'Umrah and Hajj in one ihram), the voluntary hady, and the hady of compensation. It is sufficient with these sacrifices. As for the udhiyah (the 'Id sacrifice), they are slaughtered in the countries, in the houses, as a ritual; they are slaughtered in the houses. Yes.
