The Ruling on Slaughtering a Thin Sheep

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the brothers asks: Is it permissible to slaughter a thin sheep and throw it away because it is suffering, and it does not eat or graze like its siblings? I believe this slaughter is an act of kindness toward it. Is this correct?

Answer:
This is not correct. Do not slaughter it except for eating. If it is not to be eaten, leave it alone; it will die on its own. Yes.
