The ruling on placing chickens in a narrow container when slaughtering

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. You notice that those who slaughter chickens place them in a narrow container when slaughtering them until they stop moving. He says he does this so that the blood does not break in the shop. Is that permissible?

Answer:
If it dies because of being placed in the narrow container, it is not haram (forbidden). But if it does not die and he slaughters it with a Shari'ah-compliant slaughter, and he only places it in this location because he can manage it that way, then it is permissible. However, this is forbidden from another angle; doing it is forbidden. It is not forbidden out of necessity, but doing it is forbidden because it involves torturing the animal. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: . So he commits a sin if this involves torturing the animal or the bird. And may the Shaykh have a page of the Master. But if it kills it because of this place where he placed it, then it is considered carrion. Yes.
