Animals slaughtered by a blind person

Q 1: Is it permissible for a blind person to slaughter a chicken or sheep, for example? Please, support your answer with evidence.


A: According to the soundest opinion of scholars, if a blind person masters slaughtering and is certain that (Part No. 22; Page No. 373) they slaughter according to Shari`ah (Islamic law), it is permissible for them to slaughter. This is based on the general evidence permitting all Muslims without an exception who master slaughtering to carry it out.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
