The Ruling on Slaughter Performed by Machines

The questioner:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on slaughterhouses where the method of slaughter involves placing machines under the animals to move them along, thereby cutting their throats?

The Shaykh:
This is not permissible. It is not permissible, nor is it permissible to cut the throat of an animal that is alive but has been killed by electric shock, even if they cut its throat after it has died. Its death is not due to the cutting of its throat; rather, they cut its throat for the sake of teaching, for the purpose of instruction and the system of instruction. Yes.

The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, it is stated in al-Mughni and al-Inṣāf.

The Shaykh:
That they kill them by electric shock or by hot water. They pass them over hot water so that they die, and then, after they have died, they cut their throats. I mean.
