one can stop eating meat on religious grounds if the meat is coming from cattle and poultry which is being maltreated. the conditions at large meat processing plants, poultry farms etc are such that if someone decides that they cant be part of that and become vegetarian then i think it is in keeping with general islamic principles. what do you say?
one can also stop eating if there is a high chance of harm due to that meat, because in religion you are supposed to care for your health so not consuming something that will hurt you is in line with religion e.g. with mad cow disease
so that can extend to someone saying that genetically modified food can be dangerous and the hormone and antibiotics pumped grain fed cattle and poultry is going to have a bad impact on them and stop eating it on those grounds, whats wrong with that?
Very true…but here in west at least the genetically modified food is properly labeled…at least in UK the food is usually certified halal..so you have assurance..dont know about USA.
