The Ruling on Eating Imported Meats

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on eating imported meats when we do not know whether they were slaughtered according to the Islamic Shari'ah or not?

Answer:
Leave it. Eat whatever you know was slaughtered, or what you are confident was slaughtered in the Islamic manner. Leave what you are doubtful about. Leave what causes doubt for what does not cause doubt. And praise be to Allah, there is an alternative for you that is free from doubt. Yes.
