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 run over by some cars, and I saw some of them suffering. Is it permissible for me to perform the ritual slaughter of as many of them as I can from this flock?
Answer:
If the zakah reaches it, and it is taken and benefited from, that is one thing. But if the zakah does not affect it, and it is slaughtered and its meat is not usable, that is another. The point is: if it is on its last breath and the zakah does not apply to it, and it dies from the crushing, then the zakah does not apply to it. But if it is injured and will remain alive for a period, does he slaughter it? The meat is benefited from. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
