How accurate is the belief that slaughtered rams for sacrifice on the Day of Eid will enter Paradise?
The exegetes, in their interpretation of Allah's saying: (And the disbeliever will say, "Oh, I wish that I had been dust"), mentioned that animals will turn into dust after retribution among them on the Day of Judgment. Al-Hakim narrated from Abu Hurairah that all creatures will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment, and it is part of Allah's justice that He will take the right of the hornless from the horned, then He will say to them: "Be dust," and the disbeliever will wish he had been dust. Sacrificial animals are not excluded from the generality of animals except with valid proof. There are weak narrations stating that sacrificial animals will be mounts on the Sirat or in Paradise.
