What is the ruling on distributing sacrificial meat by lottery among sons if the sheep belong to the father and the sons slaughtered them, each in his own name?
The jurists have stipulated that the mixing of sacrificial meats after slaughtering does not prevent their validity, and at that point, the meat should be given as charity. The sacrificer should not eat from it, because he might be eating from the meat of another person's sacrifice, and eating from one's own sacrifice is a Sunnah (recommended practice).
