The questioner:
What is the ruling on ready-to-eat, slaughtered, frozen chicken found in the markets?
The Shaykh:
By Allah, I do not know; I do not know. But the imported chicken is surrounded by doubt. So, from the perspective of avoiding what is doubtful, avoid it. Buy live chicken and slaughter it yourself, or have it slaughtered while you are present. Yes.
The questioner:
And…
The Shaykh:
Forget the chicken. You have fish, you have camel meat, you have sheep meat. Yes.
