If one vows to slaughter, is it obligatory to give all the meat in charity to the poor?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The vow, O Shaykh, if one vows to slaughter—for example, a slaughter—does one have to give it all to the poor, or not?
The Shaykh : If you did not intend to eat from your vow, it has left your hand and gone to the poor. But if you intended to, then it is up to you and your intention.
The questioner : I mean, if I did not intend to give it away, I am not required to give it away?
The Shaykh : If you did not intend to eat from it, do not eat from it.
The questioner : At the time of the vow?
The Shaykh : At the time of fulfilling it.
The questioner : If I did not intend at the beginning of the vow, I mean?
The Shaykh: Of course.
Well, peace be upon you.
Those present: And upon you peace.
