What is the ruling on eating the meat of a jallalah?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The permitted blood means mostly from chickens and the like.
The Shaykh : The blood is mostly permitted.
The questioner : I mean, I mean, the chickens eat it.
The Shaykh : Yes, if they mix into their feed something that is harmful, as long as most of the feed is not blood, it is halal. I mean, if we suppose that the blood is forty percent of its food, it is halal. But if it becomes ninety percent, what will it be? Oh, my. There is a difference of opinion; some scholars say it is halal, and some say it is haram. Why is it haram? It is haram until you feed it pure food for three days, because it is like a garment that has become impure; if you wash it, it becomes pure. And I am hesitant about forbidding it, hesitant about forbidding it. If the hadith prohibiting the jallalah is authentic, that is the deciding factor. If it is not authentic, the opinion of permissibility is more correct.
