Jamiat chief urges Muslims to avoid prohibited animal sacrifice, social media posts on slaughtered animals

Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind chief Maulana Arshad Madani urged Muslims to avoid sacrificing prohibited animals and advised caution during Eid-ul-Azha. He suggested consulting authorities if buffalo sacrifice faces obstruction and to avoid social media displays of slaughtered animals. Former VP Hamid Ansari echoed Madani’s call to not slaughter cows and proposed declaring the cow the national animal.
