Buying of animals like goat, cow etc. by weight. Is it permissible?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Jamia Binoria

Does Shariyaah permit buying of animals like goat, cow etc. by weight (and not through bargaining) for sacrifice at Eid-ul-Zoha?

الجواب حامدا و مصلیا

Although animals are not of weigh-able items yet if an identified particular animal is purchased by weighing, it is correct and permissible according to Shari’a and there is no harm in it.
