No, I'm not in mood for riddles. We are happy today and enjoying eid with my friends (Swedish Pakistani, Arabs). Of course the intention is to follow the sunnah of Prophet Ibrahim and goat, cow/bull, lamb, and camel are the animals allowed for sacrifice so it depends on a person's budget and preference. Cow is more expensive than goat or lamb but since up to 7 people can share it so it becomes much more affordable. I normally prefer goat or lamb in Pakistan but here in Sweden it is a bit tricky so I go with a cow by sharing it with my friends (two Swedish women reverts, one Arab, one Somali). But my family in Pakistan will sacrifice a goat on my behalf while a cow for rest of them. And this meat will be distributed among the poor/destitute (1/3), neighbours and relatives (1/3) and also we also consume (1/3). Donate the cow hide to some madrassah or NGO so they can sell it and fund their education. That is the beauty of Islam that on every occasion we have to share our happiness with not so rich stratum of the society and include them in our celebrations.Why are you acting so Naive. You know very well which drawing.
BTW I am not trying to derail the thread but was giving an analogy
Regarding the title of the thread you are free to do whatever you want in your country because your country your rules. We will see what happens in our country
there was a poster who said something about "Niyat" while sacrificing, I have a simple question regarding it.
Is the sacrifice really valid if your niyat is to piss off the Hindus The OP seems to be very clear in his Niyat while starting this thread. And so are a lot of other Pakistani posters. I dont want to teach you your religion but just do some introspection
And for god's sake dont act Naive. You know perfectly what I am talking about
