Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. It is mentioned in the hadith of Jabir that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the Companions from slaughtering until he (peace and blessings be upon him) had slaughtered. Does one have to wait for the Imam of the Muslims to slaughter in the present time?
Answer:
No. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is the legislator, whereas others are not legislators. Yes.
