Summary
The fatwa answers that it is permissible to give the head of the sacrificial cow to the slaughterer, and it is not ruled forbidden. It is better, however, to make use of all parts of the sacrifice, including the hide, by giving them as charity.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
