Question :

Is an animal that results from crossbreeding between two types of livestock (an'ām) valid [for sacrifice]?



The Answer :

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings upon our master, the Messenger of Allah.

An animal that results from crossbreeding between two types of livestock (an'ām) is valid [for sacrifice], with consideration given to the higher of the two required ages. Thus, in the case of an animal crossbred between sheep (ḍa'n) and goats (ma'z), only one that has reached two years of age is valid [for sacrifice]. And Allah, the Most High, knows best.
