The questioner:
The questioner, Abu 'Abdullah from Unayzah, says: My Shaykh, I bought a she-camel from a person and left it with him to slaughter it. I kept seven shares of it for myself and sold the remaining shares to others for a profit. Is that permissible for me? Knowing that I do not have a place to house this she-camel.
The Shaykh:
What is his intention with this slaughter? Is it an udhiyah or an 'aqiqah?
The questioner:
He mentioned that it is an 'aqiqah.
The Shaykh:
For an 'aqiqah, it is not permissible to divide it. The she-camel must be slaughtered whole for the 'aqiqah; it is not to be divided. Yes.
