Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Some people go to the shrines, but when they slaughter, they invoke the name of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). What is your opinion?
Answer:
This is shirk (associating partners with Allah), even if he invokes the name of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) upon it, because the criterion is the intention, the intention of the heart. So if he slaughters it to draw near to other than Allah, this is shirk, even if he says "In the name of Allah," even if he says "In the name of Allah" over it, this is shirk. The criterion is the intention, the intention of the heart. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
