Animal euthanasia
Question
I'm working in animal an animal hospital and sometimes we got patients like horses in very bad conditions in pain so we use a drug that can kill in seconds. Is there anywhere in quran or hadith or shariya that we shouldn't kill these kind of patients that are in pain?
Answer
The animals that are troublesome could be killed.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
