Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. This questioner says: Before 'Id al-Adha, newspapers are full of advertisements for donating the value of sacrificial animals to be slaughtered outside the country.
Answer:
This, this, we have told you: this is not permissible. This is a change of this ritual, and these people do not want the money; they have no obligation regarding the sacrifices. They exploit this opportunity to collect money, and Allah knows best where this money goes. So do not pay any attention to these advertisements, ever. Yes.
