Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Abu Layla : The Shaykh said: I was afraid of disturbingThe Shaykh : , I said:The Shaykh : He likes things like this, I said: Okay, if something like this came up. Two or three days, my Shaykh
The Shaykh: The gazelles.
The questioner: On the gazelles
The questioner: Leave it for the bathroom, as they said
The Shaykh: For the bathroom
Abu Layla: So that we can go out for a trip like this... .
The questioner: Shaykh, I have a question. I asked you a question on the phone, about Aisha, that they said to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): "There are people who come to us with meat, and we do not know whether they mention the name of Allah over it or not." If you could clarify this for me.
The Shaykh: The answer to this hadith is that its connection is to the obligation of mentioning the name of Allah on the slaughtered animal when it is slaughtered, and the hadith has no connection to the method of slaughter, whether it is lawful or not, as some people imagine. These people were slaughtering, and because they had recently embraced Islam, and everyone who has recently embraced Islam has also recently left shirk (associating partners with Allah), there is no contradiction between saying they had recently left shirk or that they had recently embraced Islam, for this necessitates that, and that necessitates this.
The important point: "They had recently embraced Islam," and this is an allusion to the fact that they had not had the opportunity to learn the Islamic legal rulings in all aspects of life that pertain to the Muslim, including that the CompanionsThe questioner : in the hadith of Aisha knew that these people were far from understanding Islam due to their recent conversion, so they did not know whether these slaughtered animals that came to them from those people had the name of Allah mentioned over them or not? So he (peace and blessings be upon him) answered them by saying: So it is possible to make up for the mention of the name on the slaughtered animal about which we doubt whether they mentioned the name or not. This make-up is possible when we want to eat that meat, but on the condition that it is a slaughtered animal and not a killed one.
The Shaykh: The gazelles.
The questioner: On the gazelles
The questioner: Leave it for the bathroom, as they said
The Shaykh: For the bathroom
Abu Layla: So that we can go out for a trip like this... .

Mention the name of Allah, then eat
سموا الله أنتم ثم كلوا
