3099. It was narrated that 'Ali bin Abu Tâlib said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ commanded me to look after his sacrificial camels, to share out their covers and skins, and not to give the butcher any of it. He said: 'We will give him (his wages).'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

3099 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، قَالَ: أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أَقُومَ عَلَى بُدْنِهِ، وَأَنْ أَقْسِمَ جِلَالَهَا وَجُلُودَهَا، وَأَنْ لَا أُعْطِيَ الْجَازِرَ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا، وَقَالَ: «نَحْنُ نُعْطِيهِ»

Commentary

Putting saddles or coverings on animals to protect them from cold and the like is allowed. The skins and saddles of the sacrificial animals should be given in charity. Giving a butcher his wages out of the meat of the sacrificed animal is not permissible. Paying a butcher his wages for slaughtering the animal is allowed. However, slaughtering it by ourselves is preferable.
