Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah inform you, what is the ruling on slaughtering a sick sheep that yields no benefit, where keeping it results in a loss for its owner, either because its illness is not expected to end?
Answer:
The school of thought holds that it is not permissible to slaughter an animal except for eating it. If it is edible, it is slaughtered. As for if it is harmful, if it is causing harm, but as long as it is not causing harm, and, and, and he does not want to eat it, and no one wants to eat it, then it is left alone. It is left alone either to recover or to die, and it is not slaughtered, because slaughtering it is a waste of money. Yes.
