The Sacrifice and the Pilgrimage Offering for the Individual Pilgrim
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a person who performed Hajj individually wants to slaughter a sacrificial animal. Is it considered a sacrificial animal (udhiyah) or a pilgrimage offering (hady), and which is better?
Answer:
The pilgrimage offering (hady) suffices in place of the sacrificial animal (udhiyah). He slaughters the hady and it suffices for the udhiyah. However, if he instructs his family to slaughter a sacrificial animal at his home, that is better. If he limits himself to the hady, that is sufficient. But the best is that he instructs someone to slaughter a sacrificial animal at his home, in accordance with the Sunnah, so that his children and family may rejoice. If he combines both, that is better. Yes.
