Animal becoming defective at the time of slaughter
Question
What is the ruling if the Qurbani animal was dropped on the ground for slaughter and as a result, a leg broke or the eye burst. In other words, such a defect was created at the time of slaughter. Will the animal still qualify for Qurbani? What should be done with such an animal?
Answer
The animal should be slaughtered for Qurbani. If the defect was created when putting the Qurbani animal down (for slaughter), then it will not affect the validity of Qurbani.
