Question:
Answer:
1. When discharging the Qadhaa Qurbani of the previous years, the value of the animal at the time of discharging it will be taken into account. (Ahsanul Fataawaa, Vol. 7, page 533-534)
2. The value of the place of ones residence will be taken into account. However, if one is financially weak and also wishes to assist the needy in another country where the requirement is higher, then one can deputize someone to pay the equivalent value of the animal on his behalf in that particular country. (Fataawaa Rahimiyyah, Vol. 2, page 85, Fataawaa Mahmoodiyah, Vol. 11, page 344)
