The ruling on sacrificing a lame goat
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Muhammad from 'Asir is with us. Yes, peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. How are you? May Allah keep you safe.
The Shaykh:
Peace.
The questioner:
My brother, I have sheep that I raise, and I have a goat that I raised from ten months ago. Until two weeks ago, it went with the sheep and its leg got caught in the fence and broke below the knee and above the hock. I went to the vet, and now it is getting worse, I don't know if it will be a valid sacrifice or not?
The Shaykh:
If it has become lame with a noticeable limp, it is not valid. But if the limp is slight and does not prevent it from walking with the sound ones, then it is valid for the sacrifice. Yes.
