The ruling on shaving before slaughtering the sacrifice in Hajj
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, in Hajj, if I shave before I slaughter the sacrifice because I had an excuse that prevented me from performing 'Umrah, is anything obligatory upon me?
Answer:
Shaving before you slaughter is fine on the day of 'Id. Whatever is done out of order is fine. Slaughtering before shaving, or shaving before slaughtering, is fine on the day of 'Id. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was never asked about anything done out of order on that day except that he said, "Do it, and there is no harm." Yes.
