Question
Can I buy a Dumme-Shukr voucher from the Saudi Agency and entrust them to do my slaughter?
Answer
According to the Hanafi Math-hab, Tarteeb (sequence of pelting, slaughter, shaving the head) is Waajib. This sequence cannot be disrupted. If this sequence is not adhered to strictly, Dumm becomes Waajib. By entrusting the Saudi Agency to do the Dumm, this sequence is definitely broken as one will not know when the Dumm was done. Therefore entrust a reliable person to do your Dumm-e -shukr after pelting and before shaving your head.
