Hadith 1539
۞
My father (may Allah (swt) be pleased with him) mentioned in his letter to me:
"If you have the means to pay for a sacrificial animal but cannot find the animal itself, leave the price with a trustworthy person from the people of Mecca so that they may purchase and slaughter it on your behalf in Dhul-Hijjah. If Dhul-Hijjah passes without it being purchased, postpone it until the next Dhul-Hijjah because the days of slaughter will have ended."
قال أبي - رضي الله عنه - في رسالته إلي: إن وجدت ثمن الهدي ولم تجد الهدي فخلف الثمن عند رجل من أهل مكة ليشتري لك في ذي الحجة ويذبحه عنك، فإن مضت ذو الحجة ولم يشتر أخره إلى قابل ذي الحجة لان أيام الذبح قد مضت.
