The 'Id sacrifice on behalf of a deceased mother

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is it permissible for me to slaughter an 'Id sacrifice for my mother, who passed away a few days ago, given that she had performed the sacrifice for herself while she was alive?

Answer:
Now, there is no sacrifice; the sacrifice is only on the day of 'Id or during the days of Tashriq. As for now, there is no sacrifice. However, if you wish to give charity on her behalf with meat, food, clothing, or anything else, the door is open. But the sacrifice is not allowed; the sacrifice has its specific time. Yes.
