Question ID 304 Friday 1st of February 2013

Question:

Can we buy and consume tinned beef from western countries with Halal written on the tin?

Answer:

Answering your question about tinned beef from western countries with Halal sign on it.
It is not allowed to such meat or any meat before being sure that it is really Halal. The writing of Halal has no meaning as it is been done just for business promotion purpose and it does really always that it is Halal. You must verify before utilising such meat.
Wassalam
