Is one sacrificial animal sufficient for the family?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our brother says in another question: We are a family, and our father has not divided the property among us, and we live in one house. Two of us receive salaries, but during the festival of sacrifice, we do not sacrifice except with one animal. Is that sufficient for all of us?
Answer:
Yes, if you are in one house, sharing the residence, and your food is one and your meal is one, then one sacrificial animal is sufficient for you. However, if the house consists of different apartments, with each group of people in a separate apartment, independent by themselves, then the Sunnah is for the people of each apartment, or for the people of each floor, to sacrifice for themselves. This is the Sunnah.
However, if you are gathered together, your situation is one, your food is one, and you share a house, whether it is one floor or multiple floors, then one sacrificial animal is sufficient. And if you sacrifice with more than that, there is no blame on you. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
