We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
1. Legal: Halal process of bleeding the animal is painful to animals
2. Legal: Legislative privilege
3. Illegal: Freedom of religion
4. Partly legal and partly illegal: Allow for butcher shops and packaged meat, disallow on products like candy or perfumes or soft drinks (where Halal stickers are meaninglessly placed to attract Muslims consumers).
5. Alternative solution: Meat must compulsorily be labelled either Halal or Jhatka (Sikh method of killing animals with one stroke to save prolonged pain).
6. Other
On another note, I feel this halal concept is alien to Indian Muslims. It is a practice promoted by the orthodox Arab clergy and exported worldwide. I don't think the average Muslim cares.
