Thanks in advance We are living in a small Island (Isle of Man). And there is no possibility to f ind halal meat. I have visited the slaugtherhouse and told that animals are kil led by bleeding while they are unconcious (not dead) after hitting with stone. But I don't beleive that they are killed for the name of God. Can we eat this m eat ? Thanks for the answers in advance. Ahmet E. Kideys.
