The sufficiency of the 'Id sacrifice if a hidden illness is discovered after slaughter

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. It is observed that after the 'Id sacrifice is slaughtered in the slaughterhouses, it turns out that it was sick, either in its liver or in its lung. The butcher disposes of it based on the veterinarian's examination. Does such a case arise?

Answer:
It is sufficient, if Allah wills, because as long as it does not have an apparent illness that prevents it from walking or eating, or prevents it from being equal to the other sheep, there is nothing wrong with it, even if it has a hidden illness, because we are only concerned with what is apparent.
