It is also required that the animal reach the legally considered age, based on the hadith of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, which was narrated by Muslim on the authority of Jabir, may God be pleased with him.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> And when Muslim narrated it on the authority of Jabir, may God be pleased with him, he said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “Do not slaughter anything except an old woman, unless it is difficult for you, in which case you slaughter a judah of sheep.” The old woman: is the second or second of camels, cows, and sheep, so only those camels are sufficient. He has completed five years, nor of cows except those who have completed two years, nor of goats except those who have completed a year, and as for sheep, the trunk is sufficient, which is that which has completed six months, according to what Ahmad and Ibn Majah narrated on the authority of Umm Bilal bint Hilal on the authority of her father that the Messenger of God - may God bless him and grant him peace He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “The torso of lamb is sufficient for sacrifice.” Al-Shawkani said: If it is said: What is the difference between lamb and other things?
