To share in the Ud-hiyah (sacrificial

Q 2: I bought a sheep to sacrifice it, but it gave birth just before being slaughtered, what should I do with the new born lamb?


A: The Ud-hiyah (sacrificial animal offered by non-pilgrims) is being appointed as Ud-hiyah either by purchasing it with the intention of sacrifice, or by specifying it. Thus, if after being appointed, and before being sacrificed, it gave birth to an animal, this newly born animal should be slaughtered subsequently.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
