The Ruling on Branding Livestock

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Among our customs in the countryside is branding livestock or animals to distinguish between them. What is the ruling on that?

Answer:
This is permissible, but it must not be done on the face. Avoid the face; do not brand the animal on its face. It should be branded on a part other than the face. Yes.
