Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible to eat from the animals that are slaughtered when a person dies, for the purpose of the mourners eating from them?
Answer:
This is not a condolence in this manner, with this gathering and on these days. This has become part of the mourning rituals practiced in other countries. This must be abandoned. A condolence does not require a gathering, nor does it require slaughtering animals. It is a condolence of words and supplication that you say to the bereaved, and then you leave.
