Slaughtering an animal at the well after the water emerges

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Some people, when they dig a well and it strikes water and the water comes out, slaughter an animal at this well. Is this action prescribed?

Answer:
At the well? No. Either he slaughters it in his home and makes supplication for it, rejoicing at the appearance of the water; there is nothing wrong with that. Yes.
