The ruling on giving companies the amount to purchase the sacrificial animal

Question:
My brother, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to give some companies in the Haram the amount to purchase the sacrificial animal?

Answer:
For the companies that are approved by the government and have been granted a license, there is nothing wrong with it. As for those that have not been granted a license and do not have a permit, it is not permissible, because fraud has become widespread. People have been found printing receipts and writing the name of a fraudulent company, taking money from people, and saying, "We will slaughter on your behalf." The idea is that anyone who does not have an official license from the government is not to be given the money to buy the sacrificial animal and plant it; it is not permissible to facilitate that. As for those who have a license from the government, this is not permissible [in the context of the previous clause regarding non-licensed entities, or rather, the speaker is correcting himself: "As for those who have a license... this is permissible"], because this is a means of facilitating things for the pilgrims and helping them, and that is permissible. So, if it is regulated, there is nothing wrong with it. But manipulation and fraud are not permissible. Do not give it to anyone except one who has an official license. The licensed ones have opened their businesses officially; they have opened their businesses in buildings in every important place. Do you give it to anyone who comes to you and says, "I am ready," and gives you a receipt and writes a false company name? Do not give it to them. Do they wander around? Do not give it to them. Yes.
