Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 10 120 The Promised Messiah as said: The Shariah has not trusted these points. The noble Companions [of the Holy Prophet s as ] have considered three kos to be a journey. It was submitted: Your Holiness! Do you shorten the Prayers when you go to Batala? The Promised Messiah as said: Yes, because that is a journey. What I say is that if a doctor or an administrator travels to several villages as part of his tour, he cannot add up all his travel and call it a journey. Animal for Sacrifice Enquiry was presented: ‘Is a one year old lamb acceptable for sacrifice?’ The Promised Messiah as replied: Get the opinion of Maulawi Sahib. There are different views about it between the Ahl-e-Hadith and the Hanafi [sects]. 1 1. Note by the editor of Badr: According to the research of Maulawi Sahib, a lamb less than two years of age is not acceptable for sacrifice per Ahl-e-Hadith.
