Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it permissible for the pilgrim performing tamattu' who is able to provide the sacrificial animal to turn to fasting for ten days and not slaughter the tamattu' sacrifice?
Answer:
It is not permissible, and it does not suffice. Fasting is only for the one who is unable,[Al-Ma'idah 5:89], [Al-Baqarah 2:196] meaning he did not find the sacrificial animal, so he fasts.
