Sacrifices
What Are the Best Animals for Udhiyah?
The best animals for udhiyah are: camels, then cows – if sacrificed on behalf of one person; then sheep; then goats; then one-seventh of a camel; then one-seventh of a cow. The best animals are those which are fat and have more meat, and are physically complete and good looking.48,827A sheep whose fatty tail has been cut off is not fit to be offered as a sacrifice
