Is the 'Id sacrifice obligatory for the wealthy?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: If a person is wealthy, is the 'Id sacrifice obligatory for him?

The Shaykh:
And Allah, according to the Hanafis, yes, it is obligatory for those of ease, while the majority consider it a recommended practice. Yes.

The questioner:
And is there, he says, a distinction between the pilgrim and others, such that it becomes obligatory for one who has not performed Hajj?

The Shaykh:
The pilgrim is sufficient with the hady, the hady of tamattu' and the hady of qiran, but for one who is not a pilgrim, it is a recommended practice for him.
