وَعَنْ شَدَّادِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ رضى الله عنه

قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ -«إِنَّ اَللَّهَ كَتَبَ اَلْإِحْسَانَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، فَإِذَا قَتَلْتُمْ فَأَحْسِنُوا اَلْقِتْلَةَ، وَإِذَا ذَبَحْتُمْ فَأَحْسِنُوا اَلذِّبْحَةَ، وَلْيُحِدَّ أَحَدُكُمْ شَفْرَتَهُ، وَلْيُرِحْ (1756) ذَبِيحَتَهُ» رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ (1757).3 (كذا «بالأصلين»، وفي «الصحيح«: «فليرح».4) صحيح

“Verily, Allah has prescribed proficiency in all things. Thus, if you kill, kill in the least painful manner you can; and when you slaughter an animal, do it in the best possible way; and any of you should sharpen his blade so that the animal may be spared from the suffering of the slaughtering.”
