The ruling on appointing one who abandons prayer to slaughter the 'Id sacrifice

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man appoints his son, who does not pray, to slaughter the 'Id sacrifice, is it sufficient?

Answer:
No, and no, it is not sufficient, it is not sufficient. This is forbidden. The slaughtered animal is forbidden. If one who abandons prayer intentionally slaughters it, he is a disbeliever. The slaughter of a disbeliever is forbidden. And he should slaughter something else. The slaughter of a disbeliever is not lawful except what is slaughtered by a Muslim or a People of the Book only. Yes.
