The Woman's Sacrifice for Herself
A woman whose husband has passed away and who is responsible for her children and home... Is it permissible for her to sacrifice for Eid? Is it accepted from her like it is from a man? Can she intend it on behalf of her entire family?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: The sacrifice is valid from a woman just as it is valid from a man, and the sacrifice is upon whoever owns the minimum threshold for the prohibition of zakat, and it is not on behalf of the entire family. And God knows best.
