From Abū Ya’lā Shaddād b. ʾAws from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ that he said, "Indeed Allāh has prescribed proficiency and benevolence in every thing. Hence, when you kill then kill proficiently, and when you slaughter, then slaughter with proficiency and benevolence. Let one of you sharpen his blade and let him grant ease to the slaughter animal."
