2. In the narration of Mu’awiyah ibn ‘Ammar from abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), it is said that the hide of animal for offering can be used for beneficial purposes or purchase thereby goods, but to give them as charity is better. He (the Imam) said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, slaughtered a badanah and did not give its hide to butchers or the decorative items but gave them as charity. You must not give the hide to those who skin animals, but give them from other things.’”
