Topic: Ruling on Throwing Away the Skin of the Sacrificed Animal or Giving It to a Non-Muslim    (No-24862)

Q
In Canada, it is common to throw away the skin of the sacrificed animal after 'Qurbani.' Someone told me that if the skin is not given to someone, the equivalent amount of money should be given as charity.
Now my question is this: do we need to account for all the skins we have thrown away in the past and give charity for them? If so, how should we estimate that amount?
Also, Filipino people here often ask for certain parts of the animal, such as the skin, intestines, and head. Can we give these items to non-Muslims, or is it only permissible to give them the meat?

a
It is important to note that, under normal circumstances, throwing away the skin of the sacrificed animal is not appropriate, as this is considered an act of wasting wealth, which is not permissible. However, if using the skin personally or giving it to a Muslim is difficult, then it should be sold, and the money given as 'sadaqah.' If even that is not possible, then in such cases, there is room for either giving it to a non-Muslim or throwing it away. If it is thrown away in such a situation, 'sadaqah' or any other form of compensation does not become obligatory.
As for the skins that were previously thrown away, no 'sadaqah' or compensation is required for them either.
The same ruling applies to the intestines and other similar parts.
