Question
Question
Should the meat of the Udhiyyah be distributed uncooked or grilled?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His Slave and Messenger.
The one offering Udhhiyah is commanded to eat from it and give charity from it as Allaah Almighty says (what means): {So eat of them and feed the miserable and poor.} [Quran 22: 28]
Al-Qurtubi 
said in his Tafseer:
This order indicates recommendation according to the majority of scholars. It is recommended that one eats from his sacrificial animal and Udhhiyah and to give most of it in charity. They also held it permissible that one eats it all or gives it all in charity.
There is no difference in this feeding between giving the meat uncooked or grilled. All cases are permissible and there is no blame in any of them due to the generality of the word {feed}. Feeding encompasses all this.
Allaah Knows best.
