Q: My sister
gave birth to a child but it died immediately. We have camels and sheep at home and it happened that one of the goats died (Part No. 22; Page No. 382) leaving its baby, so my sister breastfed it
for many days. When it grew up, it used to sleep next to her.I am confused whether to slaughter it or not. Is it permissible to eat from it or sell it? Please advise concerning the ruling on this.
A:
There is no harm in slaughtering or selling this animal. The fact that your sister breastfed it and that it used to sleep next to her does not affect the permissibility of disposing of it.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
