Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A person’s father bequeathed that he slaughter a sheep as charity in a specific place designated by the father. He did not slaughter it in that same place, but rather slaughtered it in another place other than the one the father had bequeathed. What is the ruling in this matter?
Answer:
The father intended the people of that locality because they are in need, or if he intended the people of that locality, he should not slaughter it elsewhere. However, if he did not intend the people of the locality, then all localities are the same.
