Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: One who slaughters for Allah at the threshold of his house, intending thereby to ward off the evil eye or seek blessing, is this permissible?
Answer:
It is permissible to slaughter for other than Allah, but it is not permissible to do this; it is shirk (associating partners with Allah) and not permissible. He says, "In the name of Allah," and recites his daily portion of the Qur'an. As for slaughtering at the threshold or at the machine, if it has become a factory, this is not permissible; it is shirk with Allah the Exalted and Majestic, slaughtering for other than Allah. Yes, he wants to drive away the jinn or wants to exorcise them, but this is not appropriate. Yes.
