Summary
A sacrificial animal whose ear is torn or slightly cut at the back of the ear is valid for the sacrifice. However, doing so is considered makruh (disliked). The fatwa also refers readers to the sacrifice guidelines issued by JAKIM.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Hukumnya sah tetapi makruh melakukan korban ternakan yang carik telinganya atau terpotong sedikit dibelakang telinganya.
