Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible for family members, such as the father, son, and daughter, to participate in purchasing the udhiyah, given that none of them is able to purchase the udhiyah on his own?
Answer:
Cooperation is good. If the father, who is the head of the household, is unable to do it, then his assistance is good. However, if he is able, then it is the responsibility of the head of the household, the one who provides for the household, to slaughter the udhiyah. But if he is unable, and they cooperate with him, they are cooperating in righteousness and piety. Good.
