Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is the 'Id sacrifice required every year, and if a person who is able to afford it leaves it off, what is required of him?

Answer:
Yes, the 'Id sacrifice is for every year, and for the one who is able to afford it, doing it is better. However, it is not obligatory, so if he leaves it off, he owes nothing. But if he does it, he receives a great reward, and he should not miss out on this great reward while he is able to do so. Yes.
