The Ruling on the Sacrificial Animal (Hady) for a Resident of Makkah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on the sacrificial animal (hady) for one who is a resident of Makkah?

Answer:
The sacrificial animal (hady) is required of one who comes performing tamattu' (combining 'Umrah and Hajj with a break between them) and is not among the residents of the Sacred Mosque. Allah the Exalted said that this is for those whose homes are not in the vicinity of the Sacred Mosque. So, whoever performs 'Umrah and then Hajj with a break between them
He must slaughter a Hady such as he can afford, but if he cannot afford it, he should observer Saum (fasts) three days during the Hajj and seven days after his return (to his home)…فما استيسر من الهدي، فمن لم يجد فصيام ثلاثة أيام في الحج وسبعة إذا رجعتم
Sahih al-Bukhari 1572
,
Those are ten complete [days]. This is for those whose family is not in the area of al-Masjid al-Haram.تِلْكَ عَشَرَةٌ كَامِلَةٌ ذَٰلِكَ لِمَن لَّمْ يَكُنْ أَهْلُهُ حَاضِرِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:196]
meaning they are not permanent residents in Makkah within the boundaries of the Haram, yes.
