The Ruling on the Slaughter of the Shi'ah and the People of Shirk

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the opinion of the Honorable Shaykh regarding the slaughter of the Shi'ah, which they perform by hanging them up for themselves? And what is your opinion regarding the sea creatures of the Shi'ah or the homosexuals?

Answer:
As for the sea creatures, they are lawful, as you have heard, and they do not require ritual slaughter from the Shi'ah or from any person, because their slaughter is merely their death. As for the slaughtered animals.
Whoever associates partners with Allah, whether from the Shi'ah, the Sufis, or the grave-worshippers, whoever associates partners with Allah with major shirk (associating partners with Allah) by calling upon other than Allah, or seeking aid from other than Allah, or slaughtering for other than Allah, or making a vow for other than Allah, his slaughter is forbidden (haram) because he is a polytheist and an idolater. This is the criterion: whoever worships other than Allah by directing to him any of the types of worship, his slaughter is forbidden, whether he is a Shi'i, a Sufi, or otherwise.
