Resolution No. (223) (6/2016)By The Board of Iftaa', Researches and Islamic Studies:

 "Ruling on the Slaughtering done in Amman Slaughterhouse " 

Date: 5/ Sha`ban/ 1437 AH, corresponding to 12/ 5 /2016 AD.

 

During its sixth session held on the above date, the Board received a question from Amman slaughterhouse concerning the ruling of Sharia on the slaughtering done there? 

After deliberating, the Board decided the following:

Lawful slaughtering is that done to a living animal because Allah, The Almighty, Said (What means): "except for what you have sacrificed duly ." {Al-Mai`da/3}.  Also, The Prophet (PBUH) said: "and what you hunt with your untrained dog, and you find in a position that you slaughter it, then eat." {Agreed upon}. Besides, Al-Imam An-Nawawi said: "If a beast of prey has cut a sheep and its owner slaughtered it while it was alive, then it is lawful to eat from its meat, but if it wasn`t alive, then it is unlawful to eat from its meat." {Al-Majmou`}.

After it was made clear to us (Iftaa` Board) that the slaughtering carried out in public slaughterhouses is done to living animals, then, in principle, their meat is lawful and it is permissible to eat from it. And Allah Knows Best.
