What if the chicken is still alive just prior to being immersed into hot water, and there is a chance that death is caused by drowning in the hot wate

Question

What if the chicken is still alive just prior to being immersed into hot water, and there is a chance that death is caused by drowning in the hot water rather than by the slaughter. Can such birds be deemed halaal?

Answer

It has been proven that innumerable chickens are still alive when they are immersed into the filthy, faeces-blood filled scalding water. You will find a detailed explanation on this evil practice in the articles we have sent to you. Mufti Afzal Elias Sahib who had accompanied some Ulama on a SANHA pre-planned sham inspection has described the horror of this scalding process. You will find his pamphlet among the articles. Such birds are not halaal.
