Question : The questioner asks: Is it permissible for one who owes a blood sacrifice to take from the slaughtered animal that is being distributed to the poor in Makkah, or is it not?
Answer : The questioner’s statement that he owes a blood sacrifice implies that this blood is either for a prohibited act or for neglecting an obligatory duty. Any blood that becomes obligatory upon a person due to a prohibited act or the neglect of an obligatory duty is not to be eaten; rather, it must be given entirely as charity to the poor in Makkah. However, if it is for a prohibited act, it is permissible to give it as charity in Makkah, and it is permissible to give it as charity in the place where the prohibited act was committed, as the scholars have mentioned.
As for the hady that is not obligatory due to a prohibited act or the neglect of an obligatory duty, but is rather a thanksgiving to Allah for the blessing of performing Hajj with 'Umrah, or combining them (qiran), it is permissible for him to eat from it, give it as a gift, and give it as charity, just as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did. He performed Hajj with qiran, offered one hundred camels as a gift, andSunan Abi Dawud 1905Sahih (Al-Albani),

After that he ordered that a piece of flesh from each Camel should be put in a pot and when it was cooked the two of them ate some of it and drank some of its broth.
