The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how is the slaughter of a Christian who slaughters in the name of Jesus permissible, while the slaughter of one who visits graves and mentions the name of Allah over his slaughter is not permissible?
The Shaykh:
Even if it is a Christian, if you hear him mention the name of Christ, do not eat it, do not eat it. Because this person is a mushrik (one who associates partners with Allah), and a mushrik, whether from among the Christians or from among the Muslims, it is not permissible [to eat his sacrifice], if you hear it.
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I performed the farewell tawaf, and due to the crowd, I performed the farewell tawaf.
The Shaykh:
If you did not know and did not hear him, then his sacrifice is [permissible], and the default is that it is halal. Allah the Exalted and Majestic said:[Al-Ma'idah 5:5] But if you hear them associating partners with Allah, do not eat the sacrifice. Yes.
