ANSWER: What you have mentioned about those who have above nisab and does not give udhiya must not come to Eid prayer is totally wrong! Only one sacrifice is sufficient for the whole family living under one roof regardless of the number of people earning or rich!

Some scholars say that good deeds done during 10 nights are only valued and not the ones that are done during the daylight. They use the second ayah of Surat-ul-Fajr to explain this. So my question is, the gud deeds done during nights are only valued or both day and night?
