Question:
Also, the questioner asks: He says: Dividing the 'Id sacrifices into three parts and giving some to relatives and neighbors. If he gave away half of it, or rather did not follow this division, but gave some in charity, or made it into a meal and invited relatives and neighbors to it, does this count as giving it away?
Answer:
Yes, this is permissible and sufficient, if Allah wills. However, it is better and more excellent if he gives charity from it, even if it is a small portion, in accordance with the Sunnah. Yes.
