Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Regarding the meat and chicken in Muslim markets, should a person ask about their source? And was it slaughtered according to the Islamic method or otherwise?

Answer:
What is served in Muslim restaurants is lawful by default. However, it is not obligatory for you to eat meat if you are not comfortable with it; leave it, eat the food, and do not eat the meat.
