Halal way of Slaughtering.

My dear brothers and sisters. We have a very wrong understanding about the meaning of halal slaughter. I was asked by a non muslim professor once what makes a meat halal and i didn't know an explanation and was embarrassed but gave a vague answer saying that we say the prayer before we cut, that makes it halal. I came back and went through hadiths and articles written by muslim scholars and finally came to an understanding. I am going to explain it to urll in a scientific way so that Insha Allah in the future if anyone asks you the same question u will be prepared to give this answer.

WHAT MAKES A MEAT HALAL OR HARAM??
Ans: it is the undrained blood that contaminates the meat makes it haram.
What these non-muslim butchers do is completely chop of the head as a result of which the connection between the brain and the heart is lost hence the heart stops pumping/beating almost instantaneously therefore there is no driving force to push the blood out of the body. As a result of this the blood stagnates in the veins and arteries and contaminates the meat. Scientifically it is proven that blood is one of the best culture mediums to grow bacteria. Consuming meat contaminated with blood makes humans more vulnerable to infections and joint pains. Joint pains because of high uric acid levels in blood.
SO WHAT IS HALAL WAY??
Ans: in halal way we do not chop off the head completely but instead we cut the main vein (jugular vein) in the neck first. (This vein contains venous blood in high pressure and it directly connects to the atrium of the heart without any interference). This method of slaughtering preserves the connection between the brain and the heart which allows neural transmissions to be delivered. This keeps the heart pumping/beating until all the blood is drained off completely from every vein and artery in the body making the meat pure and thus halal.
SO THE NEXT QUESTION IS WHAT MAKES FISH HALAL EVEN THOUGH IT IS NOT SLAUGHTERED THIS WAY??
Allah has created fish in such a way that the moment it is removed from water the entire blood in its body is redirected to a part called the epiglottis in its mouth which turns bright red thus indicating that the blood is drained and the meat is pure.
SUBHANALLAH.

ALLAH Most Merciful and Compassionate.


When your world seems to be crumbling, remember that the Almighty will definitely come to your help.

Praise Him for indeed All praise is due to the one who loves us so much that He always declares Himself Most Compassionate, Most Merciful!

Yaadein Meri - MY DAD

Assalaam Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh
 
My Dad Only Had One Eye.
I Hated Him...
He Was Such An Embarrassment.  He Cooked For Students & Teachers To Support The Family. There Was This One Day During Elementary School where My Dad Came To Say Hello To Me.  I Was So Embarrassed. How Could He Do This To Me ? I ignored Him, Threw Him A Hateful Look And Ran Out.
The Next Day At School One Of My Classmates Said, " EEEE, Your Dad Only Has One Eye ! "
I Wanted To Bury Myself I Also Wanted My Dad To Just Disappear.. I Confronted Him That Day And Said,
" If You're Only Gonna Make Me A Laughing Stock, Why Don't You Just Die ? " My Dad Did Not Respond....
I Didn't Even Stop To Think For A Second About What I Had Said, Because I Was Full Of Anger. I Was Oblivious To His Feelings. I Wanted Out Of That House, And Have Nothing To Do With Him. So I Studied Real Hard, Got A Chance To Go Abroad To Study.

Then, I Got Married. I Bought A House Of My Own. I Had Kids Of My Own. I Was Happy With My Life, My Kids And The Comforts, Then One Day, My Father Came To Visit Me. He Hadn't Seen Me in Years And He Didn't Even Meet His Grandchildren. When He Stood By The Door,
My Children Laughed At Him, And I Yelled At Him For Coming Over Uninvited. I Screamed At Him, How Dare You Come To My House And Scare My Children ! GET OUT OF HERE ! NOW !!!  And To This, My Father Quietly Answered, Oh, I'm So Sorry. I May Have Gotten The Wrong Address, And He Disappeared Out Of Sight.
One Day, A Letter Regarding A School Reunion Came To My House.. So I Lied To My Wife That I Was Going On A Business Trip. After The Reunion, I Went To The Old Shack Just Out Of Curiosity. My Neighbors Said That He Died. I Did Not Shed A Single Tear.   They Handed Me A Letter That He Had Wanted Me To Have
" My Dearest Son,”
I Think Of You All The Time. I'm Sorry That I Came To Your House And Scared Your Children. I Was So Glad When I Heard You Were Coming For The Reunion. But I May Not Be Able To Even Get Out Of Bed To See You.
I'm Sorry That I Was A Constant Embarrassment To You When You Were Growing Up. You See........When You Were Very Little, You Got into An Accident, And Lost Your Eye.
As A Father, I Couldn't Stand Watching You Having To Grow Up With One Eye. So I Gave You Mine. I Was So Proud Of My Son Who Was Seeing A Whole New World For Me,
in My Place, With That Eye. With All My Love To You,
Your Father…...
