But I did not find a Hady (sacrificial

Q 2: If there is difficulty in getting the Hady (sacrificial animal offered by pilgrims) in Mina, is it permissible for me to search for it outside Mina; in the outskirts of Makkah?

A: A person intending to perform Tamattu` Hajj (`Umrah during the months of Hajj followed by Hajj in the same year with a break in between) and Qiran Hajj (combining Hajj and `Umrah without a break in between) has to offer a Hady for his pilgrimage. He may get it from Mina or elsewhere. However, he has to slaughter it within the boundaries of the Haram. It is authentically reported that Mina and the territories of Makkah are all valid places for offering the Hady.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
