as salaamu alaikum,

Can someone please assist in locating some much needed information.

The question is with regard to the uddhiyyah for the approaching 'Eidul Adhaa.

Is a woman, an unmarried woman, who does not have any muslim male family memebers or practicing muslim male family, under any obligation to slaughter?  I understand that she does not physically do the slaughtering but if she can afford to, should she request a righteous brother from the community to slaughter on her behalf?

Baarak Allaahu feekum, may Allah allow us to benefit from the approaching ten days of dhul hijjah.

wassalaamu alaikum,
Umm Abdillaah
