Chapter on Sacrificial Animals That Become Injured or Perish Before Reaching Their Designated Place and What is Permitted to Eat From Them
وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ اَلْحَجَّاجِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ اِشْتَرَى هَدْياً لِمُتْعَتِهِ فَأَتَى بِهِ مَنْزِلَهُ فَرَبَطَهُ ثُمَّ اِنْحَلَّ فَهَلَكَ هَلْ يُجْزِيهِ أَوْ يُعِيدُ قَالَ «لاَ يُجْزِيهِ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ لاَ قُوَّةَ بِهِ عَلَيْهِ
It is narrated from Abdul Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj, who said: I asked Abu Ibrahim عليه السلام about a man who purchased a hady (sacrificial offering) for his Tamattu' Hajj, brought it to his home, tied it up, and then it got loose and perished. Does it suffice for him, or must he replace it? Imam عليه السلام replied: "It does not suffice for him unless he is unable to replace it."
