Is a second sacrifice, in addition to the Eid day sacrifice, incumbent upon the one performing Tamattu' Hajj?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The pilgrim performing Tamattu' Hajj is required to offer one sacrifice (hady), which he slaughters on the morning of Eid al-Adha. He is not obligated to offer an udhiyah (sacrificial animal for Eid al-Adha) because, according to some scholars, it is not a Sunnah for the pilgrim, even though others consider it a Sunnah for both pilgrims and non-pilgrims alike.
