Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Peace be upon you, Your Eminence, father. This questioner says: In our country, there are people who slaughter at graves and fall into some forms of shirk (associating partners with Allah). On that basis, some people in this town said, "We do not eat from the slaughters of the people of this country," on the grounds that the one performing the slaughter might be among those who fall into shirk. What is the ruling on this statement?
Answer:
The one who slaughters at graves, his meat is not eaten because it was slaughtered with an invalid and defective intention. Why do they slaughter at graves? It is only to exalt the graves, and this is not permissible. Yes.
