The Method of Invoking Allah’s Name When Slaughtering and Eating

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it sufficient to say "Bismillah," or is it better to say "Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim"?

Answer:
No, not when slaughtering, not when eating, and not when performing wudu. One is only required to say "Bismillah." This is what has been transmitted. When entering the place of relief, one says "Bismillah." This is what has been transmitted. Yes.
