Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible to offer as sacrifice livestock imported from Australia, Romania, or other countries, provided that they meet the stipulated conditions. It should be noted that the Australian sheep's tail is severed, not its rump. Some scholars have permitted sacrificing animals that are tailless, whether they were born without a tail or had their tail amputated.
