Leaving the 'Id sacrifice despite having the ability to perform it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on one who leaves the 'Id sacrifice despite having the ability to perform it?

Answer:
There is no blame on him for that, because it is not obligatory except by a vow. If he made a vow, then it becomes obligatory for him. However, if it is not obligatory upon him, or a bequest, a bequest from a deceased person, and it is merely voluntary, then if he leaves it off, there is no blame on him, but he misses out on the reward. Yes.
