The Ruling on Slaughtering Sheep for Guests

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: My father slaughters sheep for guests, so no guest can visit us without one being slaughtered for him. Is this a slaughter for food or for respect?

Answer:
May Allah reward him with good. This is hospitality, this is hospitality and generosity. This is a good thing, and the first to honor guests was Ibrahim (peace be upon him).

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
