Ask The Imam Question and Answer

480 A dinner lady told me that they serve Halal meat in their school. She also said that she has been told by the school authorities that the meat is stunned before slaughtering.

My question is that, Can you stun the animal before slaughtering and is that Halal?

Please could you answer the with some proof, so I could take in t to the dinner lady, who can produce it to the authorities.
If the stunning kills the animal, then that is not Halal. However if the animal is alive and then slaughtered then that is Halal.

This topic is covered in great detail on :
