Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Some sheep become very fat and cannot stand up because of their fatness. Is such a sheep acceptable for sacrifice?

Answer:
The one that can stand up despite its fatness? No, the fat one is active; it stands up and is able to stand. The one that cannot stand up is the thin one or the sick one. Yes.
