Question:
The second question with us. Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on eating the meat of camels whose method of slaughter has not been confirmed?
Answer:
As for what is in the lands of the Muslims, the meat that is slaughtered in the lands of the Muslims, one eats from it, because the default ruling for it is that it is lawful, and praise be to Allah. As for imported meat, if one knows that it is slaughtered, or if it is more likely in his mind that it is slaughtered according to the Shari'ah method, he eats from it. And if he doubts that, he avoids it, based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)Sunan an-Nasa'i 5711Sahih (Darussalam). Yes.

Leave that which makes you doubt for that which does not make you doubt.
