Slmz,

I would like to know if its Islamically correct, if a person sends their money overseas for their Qurbaani to be done and distributed there, instead of making Qurbaani at home? Is this Islamically ok?

JazaakAllahu Khair in advance.

We have been advised to participate in slaughtering of Qurbaani and to consume a portion of it. Hence, we should do it ourselves locally and participate with great enthusiasm in this great act of sacrifice. However, if a person sends money overseas to have Qurbaani done in a place where there is a need, then the Qurbaani will be valid. This should not be done merely because it is cheaper overseas. We advise that one have one’s Nafl and extra Qurbaans done overseas and the Wajib Qurbaani be done locally.

AND ALLAH TA'ALA KNOWS BEST
