Slaughtering one's Qurbaani in an abattoir outside the city after fajar Salaah

· 27 Dhuʻl-Qiʻdah 1435 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If an abattoir outside the boundaries of the city where I live does Qurbani on my behalf between fajar and eid Salaah, is this Qurbaani valid?

Answer

If the abattoir is not in a city (i.e. it is not in a place where eid Salaah is performed instead it is in the farms or rural areas) then Qurbaani can be performed after the Fajar Salaah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
