If the meat is classified as halal but not slaughtered by a Muslim it is Haram to eat.  This means Muslims realistically speaking cannot purchase foods from a non-Muslim company in view of non-halal items availability. This also nullifies the insistence on halal labels/certification because it is produced by non-Muslims.    How many slaughter houses actually follow the halal animal slaughter rules (Islamic Shariah (Zabiha) rules? All these mechanical details does no justice to the animal whose rights to live are being denied.   ·Weapon has to be sharp to cut the four tubes (4arteries on the neck – vein, jugular artery, gullet food pipe and wind pipe)?  ·The tubes have to be cut simultaneously if not it is haram  ·If weapon made of iron is not available and animal is dying pointed objects like glass or sharp stone can be used to kill.  ·When slaughtering the name of “Allah” (Bismillah) has to recited.  ·Sharia rule says to give animals water before slaughter – Is this being done?  ·Sharia rule says to inflict less pain by using the sharpest weapon – Is this being done?  ·Sharia rule says animals cannot be skinned before its death – Is this being done?  ·Sharia rule says animals cannot be slaughtered on Thursday night or Friday before Dhohr – Is this being followed?  ·Sharia rules that animals cannot be slaughtered in front of other animals of its own kind – How many Muslims follow this especially in abattoirs and how practical is this in terms of demand and supply for meat industry?  ·If the package of meat is produced by non-Muslim countries/companies even though label says it is “slaughtered to Islamic laws” it is Haram even if the meat falls into halal meat category. Meats in groceries though with halal labels does not guarantee that it has been slaughtered according to halal methodology by a Muslim – but Muslims are allowed to eat so long as the Muslim slaughtering the animal says “Allah” throughout slaughter in the machine.Alcohol  Any form of alcohol is prohibited – those that drink liquor are considered not Muslim! I can count a lot of Colombo Muslims into this list – probably we need to expand the “others” in country population statistics to include them!    The Prophet cursed the person who grows grapes to prepare liquor, who crushes grapes to distil liquor, who sells liquor, who passes a glass of liquor to someone and one who profits in any manner from a transaction of liquor – the person who sits with those that drink liquor is also cursed. Non-Alcoholic beer is also prohibited. Please count the Muslims that fall into this category – how many Muslims do not eat Christmas cake (which as brandy) – getting a halal certificate for the cake shop which also prepares cakes with even the smallest quantity of liquor still is Haram – lesson is the Halal Certificate is worth nothing.    GELATIN  Gelatin can be eaten if the doubt is whether it has been extracted from an animal or vegetable. If it known to be from an animal it is Haram to eat unless animal has been slaughtered according to halal method (ie by a Muslim)  Alcohol in medication – though dosages of alcohol is used in drugs and medication it is permissible to take.    Preservatives    ·If one does not know the origin of the preservatives it is still permitted to take the preservative  ·If a list says it has an animal source (but is not ascertained) it is still permitted to take the preservative  ·If the preservative does not retain original form and transforms into another substance it is still permitted to take preservative.</blockquote>
