Rejected petition Define Halal in Law. Pork, Alcohol,stunned, dead animals can't be labelled Halal
As Muslims we are commanded to eat Halal (Permissible) & Tayyib (wholesome and pure). Modern farming methods are not compatible with Islam & the Quran. We would like a definition in UK Law to protect the Halal consumer. This will support the on going Government initiative for meat labelling laws.
More details
We propose
-New Legislation to define Halal in Law
-Update WATOK guidelines to include Tayyib; High Animal Welfare & rearing standards (Organic,Non-intensive,Non Stun)
-To perform Halal slaughter on permissible animals reared according to Quranic principles, slaughter men need to be Muslim, affiliated to an organisation (TBA) licensed & trained in hand slaughtering. They must recite full prayer (tasmiyah) to each animal, ensuring each one does not see another or the knife being sharpened.
