A chicken's head cut off while it is slaughtered


387

Q 2: What is the ruling if the head of a chicken, for example, is cut off while a Muslim is slaughtering it with a sharp knife? Is it permissible to eat the meat of this chicken?


A: The correct method of slaughtering is to sever the throat and the carotid arteries. The animal being slaughtered must be left while the blood flows out and the animal is cold. However, if the head is cut off due to the sharpness of the knife, there is nothing wrong with eating the meat.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
