this is from domino website
wtf does it even mean?

There is an opinion from some scholars adopted by various halal certification agencies across the world that a stunning process that is momentary and reversible does not invalidate the halalness of the slaughter. For example the Islamic Society of North America certifies stunned animal meat as zabihah halal, subject to the slaughterhouse proving through testimony from a vet that their method is only a temporary stun.

This enables Dominoes to make both claims.

Foreign guppies mostly but khair.

1. Do you guys buy meat from muslim shops that label the stuff “Halal” even though 99% of it comes from same place. Just buy it as it says halal and can’t do much about it.
2. Buy from any store either gora or desi, as it doesn’t matter. E.g. Tesco’s, Asda and so on.

I’ve had very heated discussions with friends and family about this and I’ve stopped discussing it with them at all, but this is eating me alive. Might as well go vegetarian or something (yuck
Something for supposedly halal restaurants, be desi or fast food chains even McDonalds with halal sticker on front. Do you eat from there or not?

Even if a store claims to be halal, I’ll still look into it…even for Muslim shops. I know people in the meat supply business, so I’ll go with the suppliers or shops that they recommend. So just the halal label or claim doesn’t cut it for me.

In terms of Canadian stores (or rather non-Muslim/non-desi etc), I actually buy some meat items from Walmart would be open to buying it from other supermarkets. I look at the certification (HMA) and then even if someone claims to be certified, I’ll cross check with the HMA (Halal monitoring authority) to ensure that they’re really certified.

We even have a halal Nando’s in UK.

As long there is halal Pakistani street food such as burgers and falooda etc. available near me, UK can keep its Nando’s
