One Ud-hiyah for the person who has two families, living in two separate homes

A: The Sunnah (action following the teachings of the Prophet) for the Muslim man is to sacrifice one sheep on behalf of him and his household. This is proved by the report of `Umarah ibn `Abdullah who said: I heard `Ata' ibn (Part No. 10; Page No. 425) Yasar say: I asked Abu Ayyub Al-Ansary (may Allah be pleased with him) about Ud-hiyah at the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and he replied: "Indeed a man used to slaughter a sheep on behalf of him and his household, and they would eat of it and give others from it. Then later on people began to compete with one another until it became as you see." (Related by Al-Tirmidhy in his Jami`) see: (`Aridhat Al-Ahwazy vol. 6, p. 304).As you have two families due to having two wives and each wife lives in an independent home, they are all considered your household. Therefore, one sheep will suffice on behalf of you all as an Ud-hiyah, because the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to offer one sheep on behalf of him and all his households - although they were several and each of the houses of his wives was separate from the other.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
