The time for slaughtering the 'Id sacrifice for those who hasten with the stoning, and for those who slaughter before the prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Among the hadiths is that some of the Companions did not pray the 'Id prayer because they slaughtered before the prayer.

The Shaykh:
It is not possible; it is not obligatory if he slaughters and then goes and prays; it is not obligatory, yes. If the teaching is as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did. Yes.

The questioner:
Do the people of the desert not have the 'Id prayer on Friday?

The Shaykh:
Yes, they pray, then they slaughter after the sun has risen.

The questioner:
For one who hastens with the stoning, does he slaughter early or wait until the sun rises? If it is a vehicle.

The Shaykh:
The apparent ruling is that he waits until the sun rises. Even if he hastened with the stoning, like the weak, the sick, and the women. However, it may be understood from the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) when he was asked, "I slaughtered before I stoned?" He said, "There is no harm." It may be understood from this that even if he stoned before the sun, because the stoning may be before the sun. But the general is explained by the specific; the general returns to the specific. So what is recommended is that his slaughter be after the sun rises; because that is the time of slaughter for him. And the slaughter is valid from the time of 'Umar, may Allah have mercy on you, the wording of the hadith of Jundub, so it is known that they slaughtered before he prayed. He ordered them with the difficult. Yes. It is not understood from this, which was asked about earlier, that they did not pray the 'Id. By order of the difficult, they may slaughter while they are discussing the prayer, and this does not return to them, yes. If the weak are in Mina, if they hasten, they do not slaughter except after the sun. And this is pure after the sun has risen and the 'Duha, the Prophet slaughtered in the 'Duha and said, "Take from me what I have been commanded by Allah and described." This is what happened after a quarter of the time of Jabr, peace and blessings be upon him, and that is after the sun has risen. May Allah send blessings and peace upon him.
