إِذَا ذَبَحْتَ فَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ إِيمَاناً بِاللَّهِ وَ ثَنَاءً عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) وَ الْعِصْمَةَ لِأَمْرِهِ وَ الشُّكْرَ لِرِزْقِهِ وَ الْمَعْرِفَةَ بِفَضْلِهِ عَلَيْنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ فَإِنْ كَانَ ذَكَراً فَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ وَهَبْتَ لَنَا ذَكَراً وَ أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا وَهَبْتَ وَ مِنْكَ مَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَ كُلُّ مَا صَنَعْنَا فَتَقَبَّلْهُ مِنَّا عَلَى سُنَّتِكَ وَ سُنَّةِ نَبِيِّكَ وَ رَسُولِكَ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) وَ اخْسَأْ عَنَّا الشَّيْطَانَ الرَّجِيمَ لَكَ سُفِكَتِ الدِّمَاءُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ismail Bin Marrar, from Yunus, from one of his companions, Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> has said: ‘When you slaughter (an animal) so say, ‘In the Name of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, and the Praise is for Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, and Allah<sup>azwj</sup> is the Greatest! I believe in Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, and praise be upon Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup>, and the infallibility of His<sup>azwj</sup> Commands, and the thanks for His<sup>azwj</sup> sustenance, and the understanding by His<sup>azwj</sup> Grace upon us<sup>asws</sup>, the People<sup>asws</sup> of the Household. So if it was a male, so say, ‘O Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! You<sup>azwj</sup> have Bestowed a male to us, and You<sup>azwj</sup> are more Knowing with what You<sup>azwj</sup> Bestow, and from You<sup>azwj</sup> is what is Granted, so what it is we do, so Accept it from us, being upon Your<sup>azwj</sup> Sunnah and the Sunnah of Your<sup>azwj</sup> Prophet<sup>saww</sup> and Your<sup>azwj</sup> Rasool<sup>saww</sup>; and Keep the Satan<sup>la</sup> the Pelted, away from us; for You<sup>azwj</sup> the blood has been spilt, there being no Associate for You<sup>azwj</sup>; and the Praise is for Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, Lord<sup>azwj</sup> of the worlds’.
