3. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad and Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Mahbub from Ibrahim al- Karkhiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), was asked about a man who has brought an offering to Makkah during the ten days (of the month). He (the Imam) said, ‘If it is obligatory offering, it is slaughtered in Mina’ only, and if it is not obligatory; he can slaughter it in Makkah if he likes; and if he has marked or placed around its neck a tag, then it must not be slaughtered at any time except on the day of al- Adha’.’”

4. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who comes out of his al-Hajj owing to slaughter something; if it is sufficient to slaughter when he returns to his family. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes’, and he said as far as I know ‘he must pay it as charity.’ Ishaq has said, ‘I asked abu Ibrahim about a man who owes to slaughter something after his coming out of his al-Hajj and he does not do so until he returns to his family. He (the Imam) said, ‘He can slaughter it in his family and eat something from it.’”

He (the Imam) said, ‘Slaughter it in Makkah.’ I then asked, ‘What should I give from it?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Eat one-third, gift one third and give as charity one-third.’”

Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “I once said to abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), that people of Makkah disliked my slaughtering the offering in my lodging in Makkah. He (the Imam) said, ‘All of Makkah is the place to slaughter offerings.’”
