Question

I would like to know can one make Udhiyya using a credit card to purchase the sheep?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

It is permissible to purchase the animal of Qurbānī using a credit card.[1] However, one must ensure that he has a credit balance in his account or he makes timeous payments to avoid paying interest.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
