A terminally ill, mortally wounded, dying or elderly animal can be euthanized humanely according to Islamic law. It should be done in a way that does not cause further suffering or distress to the said animal and should be quick and painless as possible.

The reason would be because it is seen as a way of relieving the animals suffering. People in the agricultural or husbandry industry may euthanize sickly animals for economic reasons too. There is no compulsion to euthanize a sick animal as euthanasia for sick animals is only an option. It acceptable to allow the animal to die a natural death in its own time too.

If the animal has a curable illness or an injury that will heal, it should not be euthanised and allowed to become healthy again in its own time. If affordable one should give an animal that's under their responsibility veterinary care.

What happens when animal shelters become full?

It depends on the animal shelter, how they handle it when they get full. Some shelters euthanize or put to sleep more animals, even the adoptable animals. Other animal shelters only euthanize the unadoptable, untreatable animals, and they try to find additional foster homes for their current animals, and if necessary, stop admitting additional animals temporarily. If you ever turn over an animal to an animal shelter, be sure to ask what that shelter's policy is if they get too full or can not find a home for or locate the owner of an animal within a certain time. You may want to consider only turning in an animal to an animal shelter who won't euthanize them too hastily or unnecesssarily.
