The Ruling on the Children of Gifted Animals and Their Following Their Mothers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
The children of gifted animals follow the status of the gifted animals. Yes. He had a calf with him that was slaughtered for him. If he slaughtered it, there is no harm. If he slaughtered the mother, there is no harm. He is in a state of necessity; he has a choice. If he wishes, he slaughters the calf, and if he wishes, he does not slaughter it, unless he specified it, and that it would be a gift with its mother, in which case he slaughters it. As for the sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah), if he did not specify it, and only the mother was specified, the calf does not follow her. Yes.
The questioner:
He says: I was born after the specification. He says: The birth occurred after the specification.
The Shaykh:
It follows her. If the guardianship (or status) became established after the specification, it follows her. Yes. Congratulations, little one.
