The Hady should be sacrificed inside


494

Q 1: I performed Hajj with my wife in 1406 A.H. I lost my money and personal documents. I neither slaughtered Hady (sacrificial animal offered by pilgrims) nor observed Sawm (fasting) for ten days. One of my relatives slaughtered Hady on the third day of `Eid-ul-Adha (the Festival of the Sacrifice). Is this enough? Please advise, may Allah reward you. What should I do? What is the Kaffarah (expiation)?


A: A person performing Hajj, whether Qiran (combining Hajj and `Umrah simultaneously) or Tamattu` (combining Hajj and `Umrah with a break in between), should slaughter Hady in Makkah. If they do not do so, they should observe Sawm for ten days, three of which are during Hajj and seven after returning home. As you have neither slaughtered Hady nor observed Sawm, both you and your wife should slaughter a sheep as an Ud-hiyah (sacrificial animal offered by non-pilgrims) in Makkah. If your relative slaughtered Hady on your behalf in Makkah, this would be enough, provided that it was with your permission.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
