Eating from the Udhiyah When in Doubt About the Invocation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on eating from the meat of the udhiyah for one who is convinced in his mind that he said the name of Allah and said "Bismillah" before the slaughter?

Answer:
It is sufficient if he is convinced in his mind that he said the name of Allah; he may eat. Even if he forgot the invocation, if he forgot the invocation, then his slaughtered animal is halal because he did not intentionally leave off the invocation. Yes.
