Don't worry Robyn, I know that "shooting the messenger" won't bring me luck....only shooting a defenceless animal right?

" بسم الله والله أكبر [ اللهم منك ولك ] اللهم تقبل مني "
it means something like: "by the name of god, and Allah is great, this is from you and sacrified for u, accept it from me"

Why is it awful sacrificing a sheep or a goat? Millions of animals die around the world all the time for the same purpose = food.
What's the big deal?

For non-vegetarians there might be not a problem.
