What is a proxy sacrifice?
A person who intends to make a sacrifice, but does not have the opportunity or desire to do it personally, can choose a trusted person as his representative and give him money for a sacrificial animal. The power of attorney can be issued orally or in writing, as well as by any means of communication. According to the agreement, the authorized person (or organization) will buy, slaughter and distribute the meat of the sacrificial animal to those in need.
