Question:
I am puzzle on Qurban. Can the meat of qurban be sold to someone? Some says “cannot” but some says “can”. The one says “can” assume that it is their meat (recepient) already so its up to them to sell if money can buy other things which they need more. Please advise. Jazakallahu khair in advance.
Answer:
Under no circumstances can a Qurban meat be sold. There is a hadith that:
“Man Ba`a Jilda Udhhiyyatihi fala Udhhiyyata lah”
Who sells a skin of his Qurban he has no Qurban.
This indicates that even a skin of the Qurban can not be sold let alone its meat.
