Fiqh 3.39<br />

Zakah on Animals<br />

There are authentic ahadith explicitly indicating that camels, cattle, and sheep are subject to zakah. This enjoys the<br />

consensus. There are, however, some conditions to be met:<br />

1. The animals concerned must attain a nisab.<br />

2. They have to be in possession for one year.<br />

3. They should have pastured by themselves -- that is, grazing most of the year in the available pasture.<br />

Fiqh 5.109b<br />

Sacrificial Animals<br />

These are animals brought to the Haram, the Sacred Mosque, seeking the closeness and pleasure of Allah, Who says in the<br />

Qur'an (22.36), "The sacrificial camels We have made for you as among the symbols from Allah: in them is (much ) good for<br />

you: then pronounce the name of Allah over them as they line up (tor sacrifice) when they are down on their sides (after<br />

slaughter), eat you thereof, and feed such as beg with due humility: thus have We made animals subject to you, that you may<br />

be grateful. It is not their meat nor their blood, that reaches Allah: it is your piety that reaches Him."<br />

'Umar said, "Sacrifice animals, for Allah loves sacrifice. The Prophet (peace be upon him) offered one hundred camels in<br />

sacrifice for the pleasure of Allah." This offering by him was supererogatory.<br />

Hadith 36.37<br />

Judgement on Animals Grazing on Other People's Crops and Animals Stolen from<br />

the Herd<br />

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Haram ibn Sad ibn Muhayyisa that a female camel of al-Bara ibn Azib<br />

entered the garden of a man and it did some damage to it. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him<br />

peace, gave a judgement that the people of the garden were responsible for guarding it in the day, and the owner of the<br />

animals was liable for what the animals destroyed at night.<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 3.684 Narrated by<br />

Abaya bin Rifaa<br />

My grandfather, Rafi bin Khadij said, "We were in the valley of Dhul-Hulaifa of Tuhama in the company of the Prophet and<br />

had some camels and sheep (of the booty). The people hurried (in slaughtering the animals) and put their meat in the pots<br />

and started cooking. Allah's Apostle came and ordered them to upset the pots, and distributed the booty considering one<br />

camel as equal to ten sheep. One of the camels fled and the people had only a few horses, so they got worried. (The camel<br />

was chased and) a man slopped the camel by throwing an arrow at it. Allah's Apostle said, 'Some of these animals are<br />

untamed like wild animals, so if anyone of them went out of your control, then you should treat it as you have done now.' " My<br />

grandfather said, "O Allah's Apostle! We fear that we may meet our enemy tomorrow and we have no knives, could we<br />

slaughter the animals with reeds?" The Prophet said, "Yes, or you can use what would make blood flow (slaughter) and you<br />

can eat what is slaughtered and the Name of Allah is mentioned at the time of slaughtering. But don't use teeth or fingernails<br />

(in slaughtering). I will tell you why, as for teeth, they are bones, and fingernails are used by Ethiopians for slaughtering. "<br />

Prohibition Against Eating Animals with Fangs.<br />

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shibab from Abu Idris al-Khawlani from Abu Tha~laba al-Khushani that the<br />

Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "It is haram to eat animals with fangs "<br />
