Giving companies in the Haram the amount to purchase the sacrificial animal
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to give some companies in the Haram the amount to purchase the sacrificial animal?
Answer:
The companies authorized by the government and granted a license are fine. As for those that have not been authorized and do not have a license, it is not permissible, because fraud has become widespread. People have been found printing receipts and writing the name of a fraudulent company, taking money from people, and saying, "We will slaughter for you." This is a trial. It is not permissible to give money to someone who does not have an official government license to purchase and slaughter the sacrificial animal, nor is it permissible to appoint him as an agent for this. As for those who have a license from the government, this is not permissible [to refuse them], because this facilitates things for the pilgrims and makes it easier for the pilgrims, and agency is permissible. So if it is regulated, there is no harm.
As for manipulation and fraud, this is not permissible. Do not give [the money] to anyone except one who has an official license. Yes, and the official ones have opened official offices; they have opened offices in Mina, and they have offices everywhere. So do not give it to anyone who comes to you and says, "I am ready," and gives you a receipt with the name of a false company written on it. Do not give it to them. Do they wander around? Do not give it to them. Yes.
