Question
In Malaysia there is a new practice with regard to Qur'baani animals. The organization sells an animal with the condition that they will donate the greater portion of the meat to the poor. Is this practice valid?
Answer
The precondition of 'donating' any amount of one's qur'baani meat is baseless and not permissible. It is not permissible to sell an animal to a person with this condition. Distributing the meat is the right of only the one who makes the Qur'baani. The stipulation of this pre-condition renders the sale of the animal faasid (corrupt).
