Is it permissible to slaughter

Q 1: Allah (Exalted be He) says: ...eat thereof, and feed the poor who does not ask (men), and the beggar who asks (men). Who are these people?

A: Al-Qani` (the poor) is the one who is content with what he is given, and Al-Mu`tarr (beggar) is the one who comes to you and rubs shoulders with you so that you will give him some meat, but does not ask for it. Al-Qani` is also suggested to be the one who is too proud to ask while Mu`tarr is the one who does ask. This Ayah means: Allah (Exalted be He) has created and subjected camels, cows and sheep wherein there are many benefits for man. Allah has prescribed us to slaughter them as Hady (sacrificial animal offered by pilgrims) during Hajj and `Umrah and as Ud-hiyah (sacrificial animal offered by non-pilgrims) (Part No. 11; Page No. 382) in `Eid-ul-Adha (the Festival of the Sacrifice) to draw nearer to Him. Moreover, Allah commands us to eat from this sacrifice and to feed the needy and beggars who are too proud to ask for it. This is so that we will have some sympathy with them, hope for the reward and thank Allah for His Blessings.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and Companions!
