عَنْ أَبِي يَعْلَى شَدَّادِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه و سلم قَالَ: إنَّ اللَّهَ كَتَبَ الْإِحْسَانَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، فَإِذَا قَتَلْتُمْ فَأَحْسِنُوا الْقِتْلَةَ، وَإِذَا ذَبَحْتُمْ فَأَحْسِنُوا الذِّبْحَةَ، وَلْيُحِدَّ أَحَدُكُمْ شَفْرَتَهُ، وَلْيُرِحْ ذَبِيحَتَهُ . [رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ]

English translation
On the authority of Abu Ya’la Shaddad bin Aws (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Verily Allah has prescribed ihsan (proficiency, perfection) in all things. So if you kill then kill well; and if you slaughter, then slaughter well. Let each one of you sharpen his blade and let him spare suffering to the animal he slaughters.” [Muslim]
বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ ইয়া‘লা শাদ্দাদ ইবন আওস (রাঃ) ​রাসূলুল্লাহ্ (সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়া সাল্লাম) বলেছেনঃ নিঃসন্দেহে আল্লাহ্ সমস্ত জিনিস উত্তম পদ্ধতিতে করার বিধান করে দিয়েছেন। সুতরাং যখন তুমি হত্যা করবে, তখন উত্তম পদ্ধতিতে হত্যা করবে আর যখন তুমি যবেহ্ করবে, তখন উত্তম পদ্ধতিতে যবেহ্ করবে। তোমাদের প্রত্যেকের আপন ছুরি ধারালো করে নেয়া উচিত ও যে জন্তুকে যবেহ্ করা হবে তার কষ্ট লাঘব করা উচিত। [মুসলিমঃ]
