Has anyone ever been told that the food you get in Makkah and Madinah is not 'all' halaal. There are only certain places where you can eat from, i.e (Al tazaj, Kudu and some others). Most meat cooked in restaurants, are mainly imported from countries like Holland!!. We were told of this, by many scholars in Makkah and many scholars in this country. Its very odd, a muslim country (the best in the world!), with no guarantee on halaal and haraam food. hmmm
I hope somone else can clarify this? It's very hard to convince you with proof... Anywayz we were told as i mentioned before by scholars in makkah. (this was about 6-7 years ago).
Well in restaurant Pakistani, Indain and Bangladeshi people work there if u ask them about this they will tell you that where this chicken come from .......they buy packet Chicken or buy Halal .......you can ask themselve too but here Pakistani Scholar also say that u don't eat from everywhere in MAKKAH AND MADINA.............May ALLAH (SWT) knows best
Oh Allah! I love you and I need you, come into my heart, please.
It's backfired on me (*raised eyebrow*), Bro ms2 i cant find no "solid proof".
I thought I would let everyone know, from what i knew on halaal and haram foods in saudi.
I still have a very strong opinion on this but i dont have the means to proof it. (very very frustrating, where's my punch bag)
just when the issue seemed to have cooled down, i get to read this message to, i agree with everyone when you say you need proof to say its haraam whether in saudi or in the uk. having said that i have been told by people from the uk that the meat consumed there is not halal. i have no concreate proof as to if its haraam but the main thing is when you are unsure you should refrain from it.

So True brother agree

Why do we have a discussion forum? So people can share their "views", I get to learn and you get to learn.. Not everyone here post threads with proof. Its simple, we are all learning.
You would expect Saudi to have Halal food, well, because it's Saudi. It would be really bad if the stuff was haram.
So Glorified is He and Exalted above all that they associate with Him, and in Whose Hands is the dominion of all things, and to Him you shall be returned.
(Sura Ya-Seen 36:83)
It truly is a sad thing for a country like Saudi Arabia to have non halal food. One would expect that if any country should sell only halal food, it would be Saudia Arabia, since they have the financial means and 'follow the Shariah'.
On the topic of questioning or having doubt whether something is halah or not, I was told this by a Shaykh.
Say there was two friends and a big mac. One believes that eating the big mac is not haraam, as he believes that eating non halal food is not haraam. The other friend believes that eating this big mac is indeed haraam because he trusts that eating non halal food makes one punishable. If both were to bite the burger, one would sin. The sinner being the one who believes that eating non halal food to be haraam. We know that intentions play a huge role in getting the reward for doing a good deed or becoming sinful. As in the hadith
"Allah's Apostle said, "The reward of deeds depends upon the intention and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended."Volume 1, Book 2, Number 51, Sahih Bukhari
One does not become sinful if he did not intend to disobey Allah. The sin of performing a Haram act is not registered as such except for someone who performs it with premedititation. As for someone who performs it out of ignorance, such a person is not blameworthy. However, even if the action is done out of ignorance, that does not necessarily cancel the worldly consequences. Nor does it save such a person from punishment if someone in his case should know better.
Overall, one must always ask the restaurant owner in which he is purchasing a meal from, the contents of that meal, whether it is a halal or not. Regardless it is in Saudi Arabia or Timbuktu. There are cheap people everywhere that will sell you anything, so you gotta be careful!
