The one slaughtered on its right side

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa No. ( 7222 )
Q2: If a man is left-handed and slaughters the animal with his left hand, is it permissible for him to place it on its right side in order to ease the animal's suffering and enable him to slaughter it properly? For example, if three people gather around the animal, the one who slaughters places his foot on its ribs and slaughters it, while the other two hold its legs and arms. Is such a method permissible or not?
Vol. 2: The matter is broad in this regard, so he may place her on the side that allows him to slaughter her with ease for him and comfort for her, and the slaughterer may seek the help of whoever he wishes to hold the animal.
And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
