Islams Stance on Stunning

Muslim scholars disagree on whether pre-slaughter stunning is prohibited or not. Some believe that if the animal is killed by the cutting of the throat and not by the stun then it is lawful to eat the animals meat. The joint Muslim World League/World Health Organization meeting held in Jeddah during Rabia al- Awwal 1406 AH/December 1985 agreed that if it could be shown that stunning with electric shock enabled the animal to die peacefully, then it would be Islamically lawful(Islamset).

On the other hand, those against stunning argue that in cases of captive bolt stunning or concussion stunning, the animal may die from the concussion, which would be similar to dying from a violent blow and the animal would then be classified as mawquza ("beaten to death"), which is prohibited in Islam.

In the electric water bath used for poultry, the birds may die partly by drowning or by cardiac arrest, which would classify the birds as mayta (dead). That would also make eating their meat unlawful.

These scholars also argue that chemical gassing should not be used as a stunning method as this would be similar to death by strangulation and the animal would be classified as munkhaniqa, (death by suffocation).

In this translation of Surat Al-Maida (The Table) Allah says, Forbidden to you (for food) are dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that over which has been invoked other than the name of Allah, that which has been killed by strangling or by a violent blow or by a headlong fall or by being gored to death, that which has been partly eaten by a wild animal, unless you are able to slaughter (in due form), and that which is sacrificed on stone (altars).

However, no matter which choice one makes regarding this matter, there is no doubt that stunning of animals is cruel and causes unjustifiable suffering to the animals which is strongly prohibited in Islam.

PETA is an organization that is against animal cruelty but there are people suffering from eating animal products which is also a form of cruelty that people are doing to theirselves from the lack of knowledge about what to eat.I don't believe that peoples focus should be on not killing what they eat as PETA suggests because as you said plants are alive and must be killed in order to supply nurishment also.People should focus on their health,research to discover exactly what foods benefit most.
