Is it permissible for a worker who is far from his children to perform the sacrifice at his place of work, or should he send money to them so they can perform it, given that they are in need of it?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He says: The worker who came to this country, far from his homeland, and has children there, and they are in greater need than those here, is it better for him to slaughter his sacrificial animal here, or to send them money so they can sacrifice on his behalf there? And you know, may Allah guide you, the severity of the need in some Muslim countries?

The Shaykh : What I see in this situation is that he should sacrifice here and there. If he is unable to do so, let him sacrifice there, so that his family can enjoy the sacrificial meat on these blessed days. Yes.
