The Ruling on the Sacrifice of a Vow and the Condition of Its Origin
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is there a mandatory wisdom in the prescription of the origin of the sacrificial animal?
Answer:
It is an act of worship to Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. There is wisdom in the sacrificial animal coming from the land of ihram or from the country it comes from. This is worship of Allah, Mighty and Majestic. It is an act of worship. Allah prescribed the slaughter of the sacrificial animal, the slaughter of the 'Id sacrifice, and the slaughter of the 'aqiqah, just as He prescribed the prayer.
And He commanded that they be dedicated solely to Him. Allah the Exalted said: "So sacrifice to your Lord and offer." And He said:[Al-An'am 6:162] Thus, the sacrificial animal is an act of worship for Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes.
No, merely having the intention is not sufficient. It must be brought from the land of ihram. Yes, from the land of ihram. That is, if he bought it on the road before entering the sacred precinct, it counts as a sacrificial animal. Yes, it counts as a sacrificial animal. Or he brought it from his country. Yes. If he brought it from the land of ihram, this does not prevent him from breaking his ihram. The one who buys from the land of ihram is not prevented from exiting ihram by 'Umrah. The one who is prevented from exiting ihram by 'Umrah is the one who came from the land of ihram.

قُلْ إِنَّ صَلَاتِي وَنُسُكِي وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَNo, merely having the intention is not sufficient. It must be brought from the land of ihram.
