Will one Ud-hiyah suffice for all the members of the same household?


A: One Ud-hiyah is sufficient for one family, no matter how (Part No. 10; Page No. 428) many they are. It is not necessary to offer an Ud-hiyah on behalf of each one of the family. It is permissible to slaughter the Ud-hiyah at any time during the four days in which it is prescribed to offer the Ud-hiyah. They include the `Eid Day and the next three days. Yet, it is better for you to comply with your father's request to gather your word, avoid difference, and cooperate in righteousness and piety.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
