Question:
If a man wants to offer a sacrifice, does he shave after his agent, whom he appointed to slaughter it, has done so?
Answer:
Yes. If he appoints someone to slaughter the sacrifice on his behalf in his country, he must not take any of his nails or hair until the sacrifice is slaughtered. As for the head, once he has stoned the pillars, there is no harm in shaving, because this is an act of worship where he shaves his head for the sake of the ritual. However, taking the nails, trimming the beard, shaving the pubic area, and removing the armpit hair are only permissible once the sacrifice has been slaughtered. And today, praise be to Allah, with the mobile phone and the telephone, it is as if you are in your home, calling to find out when the sacrifice was slaughtered. Yes.
