Halal - Right or Wrong?

[Jordy]

Screw the muslims, that is wrong.
They don;t like our laws? Send them home.

I'd say that's most probably racist to be fair. You see all these Moderator's warning people for calling someone an 'Idiot' but they all back-away when racism comes :S

The majority of Muslim's aren't illegal immigrants, your simply just stereotyping. Some of them are refugee's escaping torture and persecution in the middle east, but most of them are British Citizens which have been in the UK for generations. Just because you see the odd news story on illegal immigrant's from Asia climbing in lorries to illegally come into the UK doesn't mean they're all like that, you need to really grow up and look at the bigger picture.

They're British Citizens like you and me and have entirely the same [legal] rights as you, just because their Grandfather might of came to the UK many years ago doesn't mean we have the right to send them 'home'.

It's also not that 'Wrong' if you read that properly, some of them live better lives than food you most probably eat, and at the end of the day it's a Muslim tradition.

Doesn't matter as long as it tastes good.

How do british people kill animals?
Chaining them up and putting them through various machines... ?
Traditional Halal meat is usualy very tender, as the animal is not stressed, therefore the meat tastes better because stress hormones arent released into the animals body.

Every seen that Kentucky Fried Cruelty video? Spot the muslim. You'll have a hard job doing so.

[Swearwolf]

I disagree with it

[Virgin Mary]

Is this still going on? Why are you all so ignorant of other religions?

To say that halal meat is wrong is to say christmas is wrong, to say the festval of lights is wrong. It's a tradition that has been there for hundreds maybe thousands of years and it should be kept that way .

bloody hell

Muslims do say christmas is wrong lol. And it's different from that, it's more like saying homosexuals should be stoned and young women killed for refusing to marry their arranged husband. But I doubt people agree with that just to be respectful.

i just realise that this muslim negativity happens quite alot in britain, dontcha think?

[YoManGo!]

what's the difference?
either way youre cruely breeding animals just to kill them, and then forcing them into unhappy lives where they are force fed to make them bigger and causing them great pain; by then i think how you're killing them is irrelavent.

true, either way the animals die eventually.

[Supersam]

I may not be 100% on this but im sure that any slit to the throat is instant death.
It bleeds after it has died.

Like I say im not completely sure but pretty positive.

Plus halal chicken is used in most chinese places. It's considered sacred.

To be honest the animal does actually suffer, I have witnessed a sheep being slaughtered, since the blood is in the body then the body will still function for a bit. Thats why when you get shot in the leg, you die after some time with pain. If you dont get medical treatment.

The way to kill them with a shot to the head is quicker as well.

Im muslim and its a tradition, the thing is that we consider the blood "najis" which means impure, if we take in blood our insides will become impure. So thats why we do it this way. And it isn't inhumane to be honest, its just a little suffering since it will die anyway. And either way you are making it suffer since you are killing it, who wants to be killed? I simply say that if you dont want to eat halal meat then dont, theres no point of saying its disgusting its someone elses belief.

Like Hindus having Divali (I dont think I spelt it right) and Christians having Christmas and Jews having Hanukkah (Doubt I spelt that right) if you say those are wrong then what is RIGHT? Its a belief, traditon and someone elses opinion of life.
