The halal-ity of your food.

If you are shopping are at a grocery store which isn’t owned by Muslims, then that halal symbol does no good for you because for the meat to be halal it has to be slaughtered by a Muslim and has to stay under Muslim supervision at all times. If the meat was slaughtered by a Muslims but then a non-muslims delivers it or sells it, that meat isn’t halal anymore because it lacked Muslim supervision.

wtf? That practically makes everything haraam, since most stuff is sold by non-Muslims anyway. Sorry, but as a Muslim, if something is certified Halal then the onus is not on me to go out and prove it haraam, rather the responsibility in case the meat is haram would lie with the person who certified it. It doesn’t matter if the food is handled by a muslim or a non-muslim, that’s what I believe. Islam isn’t about making things harder than they already are.
