The Ruling on Canned Meats

Question :

What is the ruling on eating canned meats which come from abroad and on which it is written: "Slaughtered in accordance with Islamic rites"?

Answer:

It is disliked to eat meats imported from foreign countries, due to the doubt regarding their permissibility, even if there are Muslims or People of the Scripture there. Because in most cases, their slaughter is not in accordance with the Islamic Law, as they might slaughter the animals from the napes of their necks, by cutting their heads, and they might enter large machines and die therein before being slaughtered, then their heads are cut off, in order to keep their blood and increase their weight. They may also die from being immersed in hot water in order to pull out their feathers or their hair. In most cases, their slaughter is carried out by people who are not true Muslims, nor People of the Scripture who abide by the Tawrah and the Injil, so they are considered apostates. They also do not mention Allah's Name when slaughtering, and that is a condition for the permissibility of the slaughtered animal.
