Is it permissible for a person to borrow money to buy the 'Id sacrifice?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Answer : No, he should not borrow money to perform the sacrifice, unless he is certain that he will be able to pay it back, such as an employee who is waiting for his salary. If the salary arrives and he is confident that he will repay what he borrowed, then there is no harm.
