Question
There appears to be a big error somewhere regarding the chicken conflict. How could Ulama claim that chickens are halaal if Tasmiyah is not recited on every one?
Answer
There is really no error. The corruption is the product of the lust for money. The equation which legalizes omission of Tasmiyah and accepts haphazard neck-cutting is occasioned by the desire to fill the coffers with millions of rands every year. SANHA netted R7 million last year and the MJC R15 million. As long as this monetary lust dominates, haraam carrion chickens will be marketed as 'halaal'
