The Ruling on Eating the Slaughtered Animals of the People of the Book That Are Imported
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The tribe of al-Sharif. I seek forgiveness from Allah. What is the ruling on the meat of the people of the Dajjal that comes from France and Brazil, and they are the People of the Book?
Answer:
Allah has made permissible for us the slaughter of the People of the Book if they slaughter it according to the conditions you have heard, the four conditions. If they slaughter it and the four conditions are met, then their slaughter is lawful. However, if they slaughter it by means other than the lawful slaughter, such as electric stunning, rotation by electricity, shooting with guns, or otherwise, then it is forbidden. If a Muslim did this, his slaughter would not be lawful, because this is not slaughter; it is killing. Is it not slaughter?
So the four conditions are necessary. And what comes from abroad now is a matter of great doubt. First, because the disbelievers are now mixed up, and it is not known who is a Person of the Book, who is a polytheist, who is a Zoroastrian, who is a materialist, and who is an atheist. They are mixed up now.
Second, the slaughter itself is also doubtful, for the majority of these meats that are exported are slaughtered automatically, slaughtered automatically by machines only. Without intention, without will, without the mention of Allah’s name, and without cutting at the place of cutting. Rather, it is by hot water, or by an electric current, or by striking with heavy objects. So in reality, it is a matter of doubt. The safest course for a person, and the one that clears his conscience, is not to eat from it, but rather to eat from the chickens and slaughters that are slaughtered in the Kingdom or in the Islamic countries. And in the Kingdom it is safer. And praise be to Allah, now the meats are available in the Kingdom. From birds and from animals, they are very available. So whoever wants to eat should buy from the production of the Kingdom. This is safer and clears the conscience. Yes.
