The ruling on the sacrificial animal being horned and having a white spot

The questioner : He says: Is the fact that the sheep is from the Harim region intended, or did it happen by chance? I mean, I bought it for him, and it just so happened that it was from the Harim region?

The Shaykh : As for it being two rams, that is certainly intended, without doubt, because rams are large sheep. As for it being horned, the scholars said that being horned is a sign of its strength and the soundness of its body. Accordingly, this is intended. Also, a horned ram is generally stronger and defends itself. So this is also a characteristic that distinguishes it from others. Yes. As for having a white spot, this is a matter in itself: is it intended, or did it happen by chance? Some say it is intended and that it should have a white spot, while others say no, the color has no bearing on it. Undoubtedly, if this occurs, it is better. We do not say that a white-spotted one and one without are the same.

The questioner : I mean, right now, for example, the Najdi sheep is considered better by people, more desirable, and more expensive. Just kidding.

The Shaykh : This would be preferable.
