Is it permissible to offer as a sacrifice a sheep with its uterus removed, or to sell it, and is that considered one of the defects of a sacrificial animal?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is permissible to sacrifice a sheep with a cut rump, although it is better to avoid it, as it resembles castration, which the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, sacrificed a castrated ram. It is permissible to sell this sheep, provided that this defect is disclosed to the buyer.
