Definition of the Hady, the Place of Its Slaughter, and the Ruling on the Hady of Tamattu' and Qiran

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
From the questions on Hajj, the questioner Abu Hamid says: What is meant, O Shaykh, by the hady? Where is its place? And what is the ruling on the hady of tamattu' and qiran? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. The meaning of hady is the saying of Allah the Exalted:
what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animalsفَمَا اسْتَيْسَرَ مِنَ الْهَدْيِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:196]
It means slaughtering from the livestock of the herd, which are camels, cattle, and sheep. A sheep suffices for one person, while a cow suffices for seven, and a camel or a large camel suffices for seven. This is the hady. The hady of tamattu' is obligatory. The saying of Allah the Exalted:
then whoever performs 'umrah [during the Hajj months] followed by Hajj [offers] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animalsفَمَن تَمَتَّعَ بِالْعُمْرَةِ إِلَى الْحَجِّ فَمَا اسْتَيْسَرَ مِنَ الْهَدْيِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:196]
This applies to the pilgrim who comes from outside. As for the people of Makkah, they have no hady to offer; if they perform tamattu', they have no hady to offer.
This is for those whose family is not in the area of al-Masjid al-Haram.ذَٰلِكَ لِمَن لَّمْ يَكُنْ أَهْلُهُ حَاضِرِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:196]
As for voluntary hady, it is that which is not for a tamattu' or qiran pilgrimage, and not for committing a prohibited act or leaving an obligatory one. It is what a person volunteers without a cause, and his only intention is to draw near to Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He. The place of the hady is Makkah and its valleys. The hady is not slaughtered outside the Haram. The saying of Allah the Exalted:
then their place of sacrifice is at the ancient House.ثُمَّ مَحِلُّهَا إِلَى الْبَيْتِ الْعَتِيقِ
[Al-Hajj 22:33]
means the hady; the place of the hady, meaning the place of its slaughter, is up to the Ancient House, meaning up to the Haram, up to the Haram. So do not slaughter outside the Haram. Yes.
