Ruling on slaughtering a sheep and giving it in charity on behalf of one's parents
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
He asks a second time and says: Is it permissible for a man to slaughter a sheep, make food from it, and give some of it in charity, intending thereby to be dutiful to his parents, or what is called a dinner for the parents? Please inform us, may Allah reward you.
Answer: There is no harm in that. If a person slaughters a sheep, cow, or camel, and eats from it and gives charity on behalf of himself, his household, his parents, or others, all of this is good and there is nothing wrong with it. Charity with meat, charity with food, charity with clothing, and charity with money are all good. They all benefit the deceased by the consensus of the Muslims, and they also benefit the living. So if he slaughters a sheep, cow, or camel, and eats from it, and stores for his household what he wills, and intends to give to those he loves among his neighbors and relatives, or gives it to the poor, all of this is good and there is no harm in it. Yes.
