Borrowing for the Purpose of the Udhiyah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: If a Muslim does not have money, is he required to borrow in order to perform the udhiyah?

Answer:
Yes, if he has the means to repay, he should borrow, because it is a religious observance. The udhiyah is a great religious observance, so he should borrow if he knows he can repay. If he has money that is not currently available, or a job he can do to earn money, and he is certain he will be able to perform the udhiyah, then he should do so. Yes.
