What do you advise someone who is performing Hajj for the first time regarding the sacrificial animal (adhaahi), and should the check for the sheep be submitted at a specific time during the days of Hajj, especially since he prefers "al-ajj wal-thajj" and fears the unavailability of sacrificial animals, slaughterers, or the poor for distribution?

The aforementioned is authentic, and its meaning does not contradict entrusting a reliable person or institution to perform the sacrifice on behalf of the pilgrim. If you are unable to purchase and slaughter the sacrificial animal (Hady or ) yourself, then it is preferable to appoint a trusted institution like Al-Rajhi Foundation, especially since the mentioned company is recommended by scholars in the Kingdom.
