11.When more than one person makes Qurbani a cow or camel, it is a condition for the
validity of the Qurbani of all the persons that each one of them has the Niyya (intention)
of Qurbani or Aqeeqa. If any one of them has an intention of merely eating meat, the
Qurbani of all the share-holders will not be valid.
12.When buying a cow or camel one made an intention that he will share this animal with
others. After purchasing the animal he intends others to share with him. This Qurbani will
be proper.
13.At the time of purchasing a cow or camel one makes the intention that he will not share
this animal with others It is now, not good for him, share that animal with others, but if
he does, the Qurbani is the share-holders will be valid. Qurbani will also be valid if he is a
person upon whom Qurbani is Wajib. i.e. a rich person if he is a poor person then he will
have to make Qurbani for that number of shares that he has given to others. If the days
of Qurbani have passed, then he must give the value of that amount of shares to the
poor.
14.The animals chosen for Qurbani should be healthy, free from faults and defects.
