Chapter on Sacrificial Animals That Become Injured or Perish Before Reaching Their Designated Place and What is Permitted to Eat From Them
وَ رَوَى اَلْعَلاَءُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلْهَدْيِ اَلْوَاجِبِ إِنْ أَصَابَهُ كَسْرٌ أَوْ عَطَبٌ أَ يَبِيعُهُ وَ إِنْ بَاعَهُ مَا يَصْنَعُ بِثَمَنِهِ قَالَ «إِنْ بَاعَهُ فَلْيَتَصَدَّقْ بِثَمَنِهِ وَ يُهْدِي هَدْياً آخَرَ».
Al-Ala narrated from Muhammad ibn Muslim, from one of the Imams عليه السلام, who said: I asked him about a hady (obligatory sacrificial animal) that suffers a fracture or injury—can it be sold, and if sold, what should be done with its price? Imam عليه السلام replied: "If he sells it, he should give its price in charity and offer another sacrificial animal."
