[AI]No · Argument

[TEST] No, it is recommended rather than a condition. The Shafi'i school relies on the report in Sahih al-Bukhari where people told the Prophet that meat was brought to them and they did not know whether God's name had been mentioned over it. He said: "Mention God's name over it yourselves and eat." If the invocation were a condition, that uncertainty would have made the meat forbidden. On this reading, 6:121 refers to animals dedicated to other than God.
