The Ruling on Eating Animals Slaughtered by the Christians

Question :

Is it permissible to eat animals slaughtered by the Christians in these times, bearing in mind many methods of slaughtering which they employ, such as the use of machines and anaesthetic substances during the slaughtering process?

Answer:

It is permissible to eat their slaughtered animals as long as it is not known that they were slaughtered by a method other than the Islamic method, because the basic principle is that they are permissible, like an animal slaughtered by a Muslim, according to the Words of Allah, Most High:
"The food (slaughtered cattle, eatable animals) of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) is lawful to you and yours is lawful to them."
