The questioner:
In her third question, she asks: What is the ruling for a person who owes a fidyah, slaughters it in Makkah, feeds the poor, and eats from it himself?
The Shaykh:
If this fidyah is a fidyah of compensation, it is not permissible for him to eat from it, because it is an expiation. If he has eaten from it, he must give out meat equal to what he ate and donate it.
The questioner:
Even if it is not in Makkah? In Makkah.
The Shaykh:
In Makkah, it is not valid except in Makkah. As for the hady of tamattu', the hady of qiran, or voluntary hady, there is no harm in eating from it. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Hajj 22:36] [Al-Hajj 22:28] Yes.
