The Ruling on the Slaughter of a Child or a Lunatic
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the slaughtered animal to be discarded if it was slaughtered by a child or a lunatic? And is discarding it considered a form of wastefulness and loss of wealth? And is it permissible to give it to disbelievers?
Answer:
This is carrion. If a lunatic or a child who has not reached the age of discernment slaughters it, it is carrion, forbidden, and is to be discarded just as a dead animal is discarded. This is not considered wastefulness. No, rather, you take the carrion and treat it as carrion, because that would be wastefulness. The forbidden thing is to be cast aside and thrown away, and that is not considered wastefulness. The lawful thing is what is not permissible to waste, whereas the forbidden thing is to be cast aside and thrown away.
