The third question from Fatwa number ( 9785 )
Q3: Among some people, known as the Sada (the Dervishes), and the general public, when one of them slaughters a sheep, he says: "In the name of Allah, and Allah is the Greatest." They believe that if one of them says "In the name of the Most Merciful, the Compassionate" when slaughtering the sacrificial animal, he must leave the sheep and not slaughter it; because the name "The Most Merciful, the Compassionate" came in the invocation, he must have mercy on the sheep and not slaughter it. What is the ruling of Islam in this matter, and what is your opinion of their statement?
