Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) perform al-nahr as mere slaughter, or as slaughter and flaying?
The Shaykh : Al-nahr applies to mere slaughter; that is the original meaning. However, when he was commanded to take a portion from every sacrificial animal, it became known that it was flayed and its meat was distributed. It is understood that when the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) slaughtered, the people would gather around it, take from it, and benefit from it.
