هذا دليل أيضاً على ماذا؟  This is also a proof of what?  على أن الذبح عبادة محضة، عبادة ما يجوز أن تصرف لغير الله  That slaughtering (animal sacrifice) is a pure act of worship; It is not permissible to be offered for other than Allah. فإن صُرِّفت لغير الله فهو من الشرك بالله عز وجل And if it is offered for other than Allah, then it is Shirk (worshipping others with Allah) حتى لو لم يرد عن رسول الله ﷺ أنه قال  : من ذبح لغير الله فقد أشرك)  Even if it is not mentioned that the Prophet ﷺ said: whosoever slaughters for other than Allah, has committed shirk. ما قال ذلك، لكن جاءت أدله كثيره على أن من عبد غير الله فقد أشرك  He didn't say that, but there are many evidences showing that whosoever worships other than Allah, has committed shirk.  (وَاعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا)[ ٣٦ ،النساء]  "Worship Allah and join none with Him (in worship)" (An-Nisa: 36). فداخل في هذا العموم كل العبادات ليس بالضرورة أن يأتي نصٌ ينص على كل عبادة أنه من فعل لغير الله فقد أشرك  So, all acts of worship are included, and it’s not necessary that each Ibadah (act of worship) has its own proof (from the Qur’an and Sunnah) that states: whosoever does ‘this act of worship’ for other than Allah, has committed shirk.  ما نجد أيضا مثلاً:  For example, we don’t find something that says:  من توكل على غير الله فقد أشرك. whosoever makes Tawakkul (rely) on other than Allah has committed shirk. من سجد لغير الله فقد أشرك. Whosoever prostrates to other than Allah has committed shirk. من ركع لغير الله فقد أشرك.  Whosoever bows to other than Allah has committed shirk.    من...من فقد أشرك  ما في Whosoever does such and such… has committed shirk, there is none. لكن لا يعني ذلك أن هذه العبادات من تعبد بها لغير الله لا يكون مشركاً لأنه ماورد دليل أن من فعل العبادة الفلانية بعينها فهو مشرك او فقد أشرك  This doesn’t mean that these acts of worship, whosoever offers them to other than Allah, is not a Mushrik because there is no proof that whosoever does this particular act of worship is a Mushrik or has committed shirk (polytheism).  طيب فيه أدله على العبادة كلها لله (وَيَكُونَ الدِّينُ كُلُّهُ لِلَّهِ) [39، الأنفال] There are proofs that show that all acts of worship must be for Allah alone: “and the religion (worship) will all be for Allah Alone" (Al-Anfal:39). (وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ)[٥٦ ،الذاريات] "And I (Allâh) created not the jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me (Alone)" (Adh-Dhariyat:56). (وَقَضَىٰ رَبُّكَ أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا إِيَّاهُ) [٢٣، الاسراء]  “And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him” (Al-Isra:23). (وَاعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا)[٣٦،النساء] "Worship Allâh and join none with Him (in worship)" (Al-Nisa:32). (إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ) [٥، الفاتحة] "You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help (for each and everything)" (Al-Fatihah:5). أدله كثيرة تدل على وجوب إخلاص الدين لله عز وجل  (There are) many proofs (from Qur’an and Sunnah) showing that it is obligatory to devote all worship to Allah the Almighty alone. (وَمَا أُمِرُوا إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ مُخْلِصِينَ لَهُ الدِّينَ حُنَفَاءَ وَيُقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتُوا الزَّكَاةَ ۚ وذلك دِينُ الْقَيِّمَةِ) [٥، البينة]  “And they were commanded not, but that they should worship Allâh, and worship none but Him Alone (abstaining from ascribing partners to Him), and perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât) and give Zakât, and that is the right religion” (Al-Bayyinah: 5). فالواجب إخلاص الدين لله، فمن صرف شيئا من الدين لغير الله أشرك  So, it's obligatory to dedicate all worship to Allah alone, and whosoever offers any worship to other than Allah, has committed shirk.    هذا هو الشرك: صرفُ عبادة لغير الله، عبادة غير الله مع الله، عبادة من دون الله مع الله. This is Shirk: offering worship to other than Allah, worshipping other than Allah alongside with worshipping Allah, and worshipping anything other than Allah with Allah, هذا هو الشرك  This is Shirk (polytheism). فليس بالضرورة أن يأتي نص يقول فيه
