Slaughtering sheep that have been run over by cars
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, he says: I saw a flock of sheep that had been crushed by some cars, and I saw some of them suffering. Is it permissible for me to slaughter as many of this flock as I can?
Answer:
If the animal is still alive and can be slaughtered and eaten and benefited from, then it is to be slaughtered. However, if the injury is such that it does not allow for a proper slaughter, this is what was said regarding what is acceptable. The point is, if it is on its last breath and the slaughter does not work, and it dies from being run over, then that is what is done. But if it is injured and will remain alive for a period of time, then it should be slaughtered so that the meat can be benefited from.

May Allah reward you,
