Automated slaughtering and mentioning Allah's Name upon starting the machine


504

Q 1: The company intends to buy an automatic slaughtering machine instead of doing this job manually, because there are too many animals to slaughter. Is this permissible?


A: It is permissible for you to buy an automatic machine to slaughter edible animals. Q 2: Is it enough to mention Allah's Name once when running the machine, as it makes only one movement? (Part No. 22; Page No. 463)  A: It is enough to mention Allah's Name once by the person who runs the machine to slaughter many animals at the same time, provided that this person is a Muslim, Jewish or Christian.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
