  • Stunning Animals Before Slaughter

    Posted by Zahid Nazir on March 19, 2021 at 5:46 am

    Does “Electric Stunning” of animals (esp Chicken/Turkey) Halal and Does animal died due to over current come in category of “Dead Animals “ mentioned in Holy Quran?

    We know electric stunning machines have failure rate( may be minimal). So, there can be fraction of animals get died due to over current. It’s not natural death of animals.

    Kindly, someone explain ruling on it as it’s a big problem to find Halal meat in Central Europe. And those who provide, most of time are electrically stunned!

    JazakAllah!

    There’s no problem in stunning the animals before slaughter. It only has the effect of rendering the animal unconscious before it’s slaughtered. Generally stunning is considered safe and I’m not aware of any research on failures.
