A Sheep Was Run Over and He Slaughtered it Before it Died

Question :

A sheep was run over by a car and its back and its leg were broken. So I hurried over to it while it was still alive and slaughtered it while it was walking and stumbling. After I had slaughtered it and skinned it, it was said to me that this sheep was forbidden, so I left it. I request a reply for the ruling on this slaughtered animal.

Answer:

If the matter is as you have stated, then this slaughtered animal is permissible, because you slaughtered it while it was still alive, in accordance with the Words of Allah, Most High:
"Forbidden to you (for food) are: Al-Maitah (the dead animals cattlebeast not slaughtered), blood."

"and that which has been (partly) eaten by a wild animal unless you are able to slaughter it (before its death)"

And may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet, Muhammad and upon his family and Companions.
