Castrating Animals
Dear Scholars:as-salamu ?alaykum! In our area, it is the practice of some veterinarian to castrate male carabaos. According to them, these animals have better work output compared to non-castrated ones because it lessened their sexual drive to absence of sexual desires towards opposite sex. Besides, the meat is claimed more palatable. Is castration of animal permissible in Islam? Jazakum Allah khayran
