1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following
“It is the case of a man who hits a camel or sheep with his sword, with a mention of the name of Allah, in a part which is not for slaughtering. Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘The flesh of an animal slaughtered from a part which is not for slaughtering is not useable for food if it is done intentionally, and it is not a case of emergency. However, if it is an emergency and it becomes difficult to slaughter him then it is not unlawful.’”
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام )
فِي رَجُلٍ ضَرَبَ بِسَيْفِهِ جَزُوراً أَوْ شَاةً فِي غَيْرِ مَذْبَحِهَا وَ قَدْ سَمَّى حِينَ ضَرَبَ فَقَالَ لَا يَصْلُحُ أَكْلُ ذَبِيحَةٍ لَا تُذْبَحُ مِنْ مَذْبَحِهَا يَعْنِي إِذَا تَعَمَّدَ لِذَلِكَ وَ لَمْ تَكُنْ حَالُهُ حَالَ اضْطِرَارٍ فَأَمَّا إِذَا اضْطُرَّ إِلَيْهَا وَ اسْتَصْعَبَتْ عَلَيْهِ مَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَذْبَحَ فَلَا بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ .
