Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, my father and I slaughtered two camels during Hajj, and they were kneeling. Do we owe a fidyah (ransom payment) or not?
Answer:
No, there is nothing wrong with that. This is among the sunnah (recommended practices): that you slaughter it while it is standing. That is the sunnah, and that is what is obligatory. If you slaughter it while it is kneeling, there is nothing wrong with it, but you have left the better option. Yes.
