السؤال الأصلي
تقول السائلة: ماذا عن نسكي القران والتمتع، هل يضحى فيهما؟
الجواب
تقدم، التمتع والقران فيهما الفدية ما يسمى ضحية، يسمى هدي، يسمى فدية، يسمونه العامة فدي، و.. الفدية، وسماه الله الهدي، هدي التمتع، قال -جل وعلا-: فَمَنْ تَمَتَّعَ بِالْعُمْرَةِ إِلَى الْحَجِّ فَمَا اسْتَيْسَرَ مِنَ الْهَدْيِ [البقرة:196].
فعلى من أحرم بالعمرة في أشهر الحج، ثم حج، أو أحرم بهما جميعًا، بالحج والعمرة جميعًا، وكمل؛ عليه أن يهدي، يذبح في يوم العيد، أو في أيام منى ذبيحة عنه، أو سبع بدنة، أو سبع بقرة، وإن كان معه زوجته ذبيحتان، وإن كان معه أبوه ثلاث، عنه واحدة، وعن الزوجة واحدة، وعن أبيه واحدة، وهكذا إذا كان معهم أولاد قد أحرموا معهم، عن كل واحد ذبيحة إذا كانوا متمتعين أو قارنين، نعم.
المقدم: جزاكم الله خيرًا سماحة الشيخ.

Original question
The questioner asks: What about the rites of qirān and tamattuʿ? Is a sacrifice offered in them?
Answer
As explained, tamattuʿ and qirān entail a sacrificial offering. It is not called uḍḥiyah; it is called hady or fidyah. People commonly call it fidī or fidyah. Allah calls it hady, the hady of tamattuʿ. He, majestic and exalted, says: “Whoever performs ʿUmrah followed by Hajj must offer whatever sacrificial animal is easy to obtain” [al-Baqarah 2:196].
Someone who enters iḥrām for ʿUmrah during the months of Hajj and then performs Hajj, or enters iḥrām for Hajj and ʿUmrah together and completes them, must offer a hady. On Eid day or during the days of Minā, he slaughters an animal on his behalf, or offers one-seventh of a camel or cow. If his wife is with him, there are two offerings; if his father is with him, three: one for him, one for his wife and one for his father. Likewise, if children accompany them and have entered iḥrām with them, each owes an offering if they are performing tamattuʿ or qirān. Yes.
Presenter: May Allah reward you with good, Your Eminence.
