The Slaughter and Charity in the Middle of Sha'ban

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Your Eminence, father, some people slaughter and give charity in the middle of the month of Sha'ban every year. Is it permissible for us to cooperate with them in this matter?

Answer:
This is a bid'ah (religious innovation), and neither Sha'ban nor its second half is singled out for any specific acts of worship; rather, it is like the other months. Yes.
