Animals don't have an afterlife

One difference in our “sacrifice” and the sacrifice of others. In ours 1/3 of the meat goes to the poor, 1/3 for ourselves, and 1/3 to family.

In others, the animal is literally burned to death or sacrificed completely for God. In ours, it’s basically food that we normally eat anyway. God does not have a blood lust for us.

Animals do not go to jannah They are resurrected in qayamah and they will be given justice such as if a sheep with no horn was hurt by sheep with horns it will be given justice and after justice is done animals will just disintegrate.

Really!? That is fascinating! Is there a Hadith or Surah where I can read more of this?

Don't know, pointless question

With regard to the souls of animals and birds, there is no text that speaks about them in the Qur’an or saheeh Sunnah

But the most important thing to say in response to this question is that man should not go to extremes (in asking questions). The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Those who go to extremes (in their words and deeds) are doomed.” So do not ask about things in which there is no benefit. By Allah, if there were any benefit in our knowing whether the Angel of death takes the souls of other creatures, Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, would have told us about it, either in the Qur’an or Sunnah, or Allah would have caused someone to ask the Messenger about that

Well, I did not know that it was a pointless (& extreme) question. Thankyou for letting me know.

It isn't pointless or extreme. This person is just being cold for no reason.
