It is permissible to share in the (sacrifice) under well-known conditions. If each person is financially independent or lives in a separate dwelling, then one Udhiyah is not sufficient for them. It is a (recommended practice) for a financially capable Muslim to offer a sacrifice on behalf of himself and to include his household, and this is the view of the majority of scholars. It is better for a Muslim to offer the sacrifice than to donate its price, because he can combine both by donating a part of the Udhiyah.
