The answer

It is preferable for the one offering the sacrifice (al-mudhahhi) to slaughter their own animal. However, if they are unable or unwilling, it is permissible for them to appoint someone else to do it. It is also commendable for them to be present during the slaughter, though not obligatory. The reward of the sacrifice encompasses everyone for whom it was intended.
