Slaughtering the Hady in Makkah or Mina, and Which Is Better

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Is it permissible to slaughter the hady in Makkah or in Mina? And which is better?

Answer:
That the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) slaughtered in Mina; the Messenger slaughtered in Mina,
I sacrificed the animals here, and the whole of Mina is a place of sacrificeونحرت هاهنا، ومنى كلها منحر
Sunan Abi Dawud 1935Hasan Sahih (Al-Albani)
, but if slaughtering it in Makkah benefits more of the poor, or if he finds among the poor those who need it, or if he feeds people he knows, then there is no harm. All of Makkah is good. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said
and all the passes of Makkah are a thoroughfare and a place of sacrifice.وَكُلُّ فِجَاجِ مَكَّةَ طَرِيقٌ وَمَنْحَرٌ
Sunan Abi Dawud 1937Hasan Sahih (Al-Albani)
. So if he slaughters in Makkah because there are poor people there who need it, and he fears he will not find anyone in Mina to take it, then there is no harm. It is all good. Whether we slaughter in Mina or in Makkah, it is all good. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
