Offering Ud-hiyah on behalf of the deceased

Q: I have a piece of land which is granted to people on low income. I built a house which I lease now with the support of the Real Estate Development Fund. My mother, my brothers, and I live with my half brother. Before her death, my mother asked me to offer an Ud-hiyah (sacrificial animal offered by non-pilgrims) on her behalf in my house. Is it permissible for me to offer this Ud-hiyah in my brother's house? I am still repaying the installments to the bank and leasing my house. Appreciate your guidance, may Allah guide you.


A: The aim of your mother's will is to offer an Ud-hiyah. If you offer it (Part No. 11; Page No. 422) in your house or in your brother's house, it will be sufficient.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and Companions.
