Sometimes butchers begin cutting up the sacrificial animal before it dies and before all the blood has drained out; what is the ruling on this?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Some of them slaughter the sacrificial animal, they slaughter the camels, and the second group of butchers rush to cut them up before they die, before the blood has finally drained out. I do not know what the ruling is on this, meaning they cut off its leg before the blood comes out of it. I have seen this myself.
The Shaykh : Yes, it can happen in Mina. Yes, in Mina, especially if it is a good, fat animal. Yes, there is nothing wrong with this, as long as it has been slaughtered. The most that can be said is that it is forbidden to cut anything from it in order to torture it. Yes.
