**replicajoy** · 10-24-2011, 02:09 AM

So as per the above fatwa and reading Mufti Taqi Sahebs article on Qurbani I conclude that it is Wajib on each person to make Qurbani, if he is able to, and this is the stance of the Haanafi Mathab. So how would you reply to the quote in my initial post where the scholar says 1 per household would suffice? Is this the stance of other matha'ib? Can anyone provide quotes to further the evidence used by us, the Ahnaaf.

(Taken from islamqa)
Udhiyah is a confirmed Sunnah (Sunnah mu’akkadah) and is not obligatory, according to the majority of fuqaha’. Some scholars are of the view that it is obligatory for the one who is able to offer it. This is the view of Abu Haneefah and of Ahmad according to one report, and it is the view favoured by Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah.

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: The view that it is obligatory is stronger that the view that it is not obligatory, but that is subject to the condition that one be able to do it. End quote from al-Sharh al-Mumti’ (7/422)

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked: Is it permissible to offer one udhiyah for two brothers living in one house with their children and sharing their food and drink?

He replied: Yes, that is permissible. It is permissible for the members of one household to offer only one sacrifice, even if they are two families, and they will attain thereby the virtue of sacrifice. End quote from Fataawa Noor ‘ala al-Darb.
(this is the views of shaykh uthameen and shaykh bin baz (ra)).

(Philosophy of Qurbani By Mufti Taqi Usmani)
There is a Hadith from Hadhrat Abu Hurayra (Radhiallaahu Ánhu) that Rasulullah (Sallallahu-alayhi-wasallam) said, 'That person who has the means of performing Qurbani but does not do so should not even come near the Eidgah (Place of Eid Salaat).
