Selling the skin of the Qurbaani animal

Q: Why can we not sell the skin of the Qurbaani animal?

A: It is permissible to sell the skin, however the money must be given in sadaqah to a poor person.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

( فإن بيع اللحم أو الجلد به ) أي بمستهلك ( أو بدراهم تصدق بثمنه ) (الدر المختار 6/ 328)
