Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If one slaughters a chicken or less for the occupant of a grave, is his action considered shirk?
Answer:
The one who slaughtered the fly— the one who slaughtered the fly entered the Fire, as mentioned in the hadith, because it was not excused that slaughtering for other than Allah is not permissible. Rather, he said, "I have nothing closer to offer." He said, "I have nothing closer to offer," meaning even if he had something he wanted to offer as a nearness, Allah (Mighty and Majestic) put him in the Fire. Yes.
