Intention () is a prerequisite for a sacrificial animal (), and what is slaughtered for meat alone is not sufficient. The udhiyah purchased in the manner described is valid if the worker slaughters it with the intention of udhiyah, provided he is a Muslim. Otherwise, one of you should slaughter it. It is not permissible to delegate a non-Muslim to slaughter the udhiyah, because they are not among those eligible for acts of worship.
