When we sacrifice for Eid ul Adha, some people keep whole parts of thier animals i.e. Whole leg of goat, cow etc. And then roast it or gift it. Is it allowed in Islam? As I have heard that we need to cut the entire animal properly and equally. And then divide it in three parts instead of gifting the whole part to your relatives


بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

الجواب حامداومصليا

It is Recommended to consume the meat yourself and share it with family and the poor and rich. It is permissible to share portion of the meat how you like you can give all of it as Sadaqa or keep it for yourself but it is better for a person who has family and is not well off to do this.

ويستحب أن يأكل من أضحيته ويطعم منها غيره والأفضل أن يتصدق بالثلث ويتخذ الثلث ضيافة لأقاربه وأصدقائه ويدخر الثلث ويطعم الغني والفقير جميعا كذا في البدائع

ويهب منها ما يشاء للغني والفقير والمسلم والذمي كذا في الغياثية

ولو تصدق بالكل جاز ولو حبس الكل لنفسه جاز …………..الا أن يكون الرجل ذا عيال وغير موسع الحال فان الأفضل له حينئذ أن يدعه لعياله ويوسع عليهم به كذا في البدائع
