One of the People of the Book slaughters


393

Q 2: Allah (Exalted be He) has made the food (slaughtered cattle, eatable animals) of the People of the Book lawful for Muslims. Please explain this bearing in mind that the way the People of the Book slaughter animals is not Shar`y (Islamically lawful). May Allah grant you success, and reward you!


A: If anyone is certain that slaughtering, whether done by Muslims or the People of the Book, is not carried out according to Shari`ah (Islamic law), for example by mentioning other than the Name of Allah when slaughtering or killing the animal by strangling it or electrically shocking it, they are not allowed to eat it.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
