The answer

The jurists have recommended dividing the sacrificial animal into three portions: one-third for eating, one-third for feeding, and one-third for charity. Their evidence for this is the Hadith of Ibn Abbas concerning the description of the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) sacrifice, where he would feed his family one-third, the poor among his neighbors one-third, and give one-third in charity to beggars. Some of them said: it should be divided into two halves: half for eating and half for charity.
