Q: My question is regarding Hajj.
I would like to know what is the difference between dam e shukar and qurbani?
Do I have to 2 different qurbanis?
If I do dam e shukar in Makkah, can I come out of ihraam or do I have to also do my qurbani and then come out of ihraam?
I plan to do my qurbani in Malawi and dum a shukar in Makkah.
A: Dum-e-shukr generally refers to dum animal of tamattu` and qiraan hajj. The qurbani is the qurbani of Eid-ul-Adha. It has nothing to do with haj. It is the normal qurbani that you will do in the days of qurbani.
If you are doing tamattu` hajj then the dum for tamattu` is compulsory. As for the qurbani for bakra eid, you have the option to do it elsewhere or in Mina i.e. if you are not a musaafir.
Once you have done the dum-e-shukr, you can come out of ihraam.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
