Is it better to give charity from the money I will receive by slaughtering a portion of it or by distributing it in cash to the poor?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Slaughtering as an act of drawing closer to Allah Almighty is among the virtuous acts of obedience. It is a form of charity and feeding the poor. Distributing money to the poor is charity through wealth. However, giving charity through money might be better than slaughtering if the poor person is in dire need of it to relieve distress, pay off a debt, or fulfill a need. This varies according to circumstances.
