Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This person is asking about meat imported from European countries. There is a problem with this now, because the imported meat is produced by companies, and it is well known about them, or famous about them, that they do not slaughter according to the Islamic method of slaughter, but rather they slaughter by means of electric shock or hot water.

Answer:
And they do not slaughter according to the Islamic method of slaughter. So avoiding this meat is undoubtedly the safest course and the one that clears the conscience, for fear that it is of the type that was not slaughtered according to the Islamic method.
