Dought & clear, - Who is obliged to offer the udhiyah (sacrifice)? Is being male one of the conditions?

Who is obliged to offer the udhiyah (sacrifice)? Is it permissible for
a housewife who has an income to offer the udhiyah?
Praise be to Allah.
The scholars differed concerning the ruling on offering the udhiyah:
is it obligatory, such that the one who does not do it is sinning, or
is it a confirmed Sunnah, such that it is makrooh (disliked) not to do
it? The correct view is that it is a confirmed Sunnah (sunnah
mu'akkadah). This has been discussed previously in the answer to
question no. 36432
In order for it to be obligatory or Sunnah to offer the udhiyah, it is
stipulated that the one who offers it should be independent of means,
in that the price of the udhiyah is surplus to his needs and the needs
of those on whom he spends. If a Muslim has a salary that comes to him
every month, and this salary is sufficient for him and he has surplus
money which which he can afford the price of the udhiyah, then in his
case it is prescribed for him to offer the udhiyah.
The fact that it is stipulated that he should be independent of means
is indicated by the words of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah
be upon him):"Whoever can afford it but does not offer a sacrifice,
let him not come near our prayer-place."Narrated by Ibn Maajah, 3123;
classed as hasan by al-Albaani inSaheeh Ibn Maajah. What is meant by
being able to afford it is being independent of means.
The udhiyah is prescribed for the members of the household, because
the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: "The
people of each household should offer an udhiyah every year." Narrated
by Ahmad, 20207. Al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar said inFath al-Baari: Its isnaad
is qawiy. It was classed as hasan by al-Albaani inSaheeh Sunan Abi
Dawood, 2788.
There is no difference between men and women in this regard. If a
woman is living on her own or with her children, then they should
offer the udhiyah.
It says inal-Mawsoo'ah al-Fiqhiyyah(5/81):
Being male is not a condition of it being obligatory or sunnah to
offer the udhiyah; as it is required of males it is also required of
females, because the evidence for it being obligatory or Sunnah
applies to everyone.
