Website of the Office of Grand Ayatullah Saanei :: Method of Slaughtering a Camel

Method of Slaughtering a Camel

Issue 1322: To slaughter a camel so that it becomes legal and pure to eat its meat after it has died, it is necessary to follow the above-mentioned conditions for slaughtering animals and also to thrust a knife or any other sharp implement made of Iron into the hollow between its neck and chest.

Issue 1323: It is better to slaughter a camel while it is standing, but if it kneels down, or lies on its side in such a way that the front part of its body faces the Quiblah, it will also be in order.

Issue 1324: If, instead of thrusting a knife into the hollow between its neck and chest, a camel is slaughtered through cutting its head, or if cows, sheep and the like are slaughtered through thrusting a knife into the depth of their necks, it will be illegal to consume their meat; but if the four blood vessels of a camel are cut and a knife is then thrust into the depth of its neck while being still alive, it will be legal to eat its meat. Similarly, if a knife is thrust into the depth of the neck of a cow, a sheep or the like, and its head is then cut while it is still alive, the meat will be legal and pure.
