Is it permissible to slaughter a sacrificial animal while in a state of ritual impurity (janabah)? That is, is it valid?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no difference between a person in a state of ritual impurity (junub) and others concerning the slaughtering (dhakāt). Therefore, the sacrifice (udhhiyah) slaughtered by a person who is junub is valid and there is no harm in that.
