Negative Mitzvah 101
Not to slaughter a female animal and her offspring on the same day.
Leviticus 22:28 "You shall not slaughter it and its young on the same day
HaShem created animals and intended that we use some of them for food or as sacrifices.
Still, there are basic rules that apply to their slaughter.
Cruelty must always be avoided.
This Negative Mitzvah forbids us to slaughter a mother animal and her child on the same day.
