The ruling on slaughtering the sacrificial animal before the festival prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says, "O honorable Shaykh: What is the ruling for the one who slaughtered the sacrificial animal before the festival prayer?"

Answer:
It is not valid except after the prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Narrated Jundab bin Sufyan Al-Bajali: I witnessed the Prophet (ﷺ) on the Day of Nahr. He said, "Whoever slaughtered the sacrifice before offering the `Id prayer, should slaughter another sacrifice in its place; and whoever has not slaughtered their sacrifice yet, should slaughter now."من ذبح قبل أن يصلي فهي شاة لحم
Sahih al-Bukhari 5562
It is not valid; it must be after the prayer. Yes.
