I don't think we need any fatwa because it's clear in the Qur'an..
Hence, eat not of that over which God's name has not been pronounced: for this would be sinful conduct indeed. (Qur'an 6:121) Translation by Muhammad Asad.
I have no clue where this thread came from.
But lets make a few points clear:
- Zabiha meat is islamically slaughtered, there are regulations IN Islam to attest to that...
Note: Meat cut through MACHINERY saying "Allah ho akbar" while pressing the start button, in NO logical way becomes "zabiha-fied".
Unfortunately , most companies in the west have adopted this method (who are non-muslims btw) and muslims have adopted it as well. Many big islamic organizations back this up, and it becomes hard for muslims to eat "halal-zabiha-fied" meat in North America.
That meat is HARAM to consume, people should pay heed to that. It is obvious why, not every chicken/meat is receiving the same type of treatment, slaughter, and most importantly ALLAH's name...the animal has to be sacrificed and cut with ALLAH's name...
- There are lots of HALAL animals to eat, recently I enjoyed a Rabbit, which was zabihad by a friend who has a farm. IT does not mean the Rabbit meat itself is haram, its the process by which it reaches your plate, as mentioned above.
Now what ?
