121

And do not eat from that over which Allah’s Name has not been invoked, where it has died or been sacrificed to other than His Name - otherwise, what a Muslim sacrifices and does not invoke Allah’s Name over, whether intentionally or forgetfully, is lawful, as was stated by Ibn ‘Abbās, and this is the opinion of Al-Shāfi’ī - verily it, the eating thereof, is wickedness, a contravention of what is lawful. And truly the devils inspire, whisper [to], their friends, the disbelievers, to dispute with you, in deeming carrion lawful; and if you obey them, in this [matter], you are truly idolaters.
