Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If one slaughters for other than Allah, and he is a Muslim and gives some of it as a gift to another man, is it permissible for the recipient to eat from it?

Answer:
It is not permissible. If you know that it was slaughtered for other than Allah, it is not permissible for you to accept the gift or eat from it, because it is haram (forbidden) carrion.
