✅ Based on the above narrations and others, there is no prohibition on eating the intestines of a lawful-meat animal, unless the animal is given wine to drink and slaughtered while intoxicated, in which case its internal parts such as the intestines and tripe are not to be eaten. If the animal consumes urine or excrement and is slaughtered in that state, its internal parts like the intestines and tripe can be eaten after washing.
