What is the Sunnah in slaughtering livestock?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah keep you safe. Regarding the rest of his question: What is the Sunnah in slaughtering an animal other than livestock?

Answer:
Other than? Yes. Livestock. As you heard, it is laid on its left side, facing the qiblah, and slaughtered in the throat if it is cattle or sheep. As for camels, it stands with its left hand tied, then it is stabbed with a spear or knife in the chest, and the windpipe and arteries are cut.
