The goat that I purchased is 11 months old but very big in size, is it suitable for Qur’baani?

Answer

A goat has to be a minimum of one year. It is not permissible to make Qur’baani of a 11 month old goat regardless of its size. However, an exception has been made for only sheep. If a sheep of six months is so big in size that it passes for a one year old then it is permissible for Qur’baani. It does not mean that all sheep of 6 months old are permissible for Qur’baani slaughter. A cow has to be at least two years old.
