QUESTION:
If a person takes a Nafl share in a cow for Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم and for a specific Marhoom( e.g. their father ) do they have to tell the slaughterer who the animal is for, and must the slaughterer take their names?
ANSWER:
The one who intends performing Qurbani on behalf of the Marhoom should make intention at the time of purchase. It is not necessary for the one slaughtering to take each person’s name.
ولا يشترط أن يقول بلسانه ما نوى بقلبه كما في الصلاة اهـ. وفي البزازية: لو ذبح المشتراة لها بلا نية الأضحية جازت اكتفاء بالنية عند الشراء (الدر المختار و حاشية ابن عابدين 6/312)
ALLAH TA’ALA IN HIS INFINITE KNOWLEDGE KNOWS BEST!
