The misconception about Zabiha according to the method of Islam.

One may consider the following points, which prove that the Zabiha method is not only humane but also scientifically the best: 

1. Islamic method of slaughtering animal Zakkaytum is a verb derived from the root word Zakah (to purify). Its infinitive is Tazkiyah which means purification. The Islamic mode of slaughtering an animal requires the following conditions to be met: 
a:The animal has to be slaughtered with a sharp object (knife) and in a fast way so that the pain of slaughter is minimised. 
b: Cut wind pipe, throat and vessels of neck Zabiha is an Arabic word which means ‘slaughtered’. The ‘slaughtering’ is to be done by cutting the throat, windpipe and the blood vessels in the neck causing the animal’s death without cutting the spinal cord. 
c: Blood should be drained .The blood has to be drained completely before the head is removed. The purpose is to drain out most of the blood which would serve as a good culture medium for micro organisms. The spinal cord must not be cut because the nerve fibres to the heart could be damaged during the process causing cardiac arrest, stagnating the blood in the blood vessels. 
2. Blood is a good media of germs, bacteria, toxins, etc. Therefore the Muslim way of slaughtering is more hygienic as most of the blood containing germs, bacteria, toxins, etc. that are the cause of several diseases are eliminated. 
3. Meat slaughtered in an Islamic way remains fresh for a longer time due to 
deficiency of blood in the meat as compared to other methods of slaughtering. 
4. Animal does not feel pain .
The swift cutting of vessels of the neck disconnects the flow of blood to the nerve of the brain responsible for pain. Thus the animal does not feel pain. While dying, the animal struggles, writhers, shakes and kicks, not due to pain, but due to the contraction and relaxation of the muscles defecient in blood and due to the flow of blood out of the body.

Killing the animal by clubbing‚ goring or any other method other than cutting the neck with a sharp knife is not acceptable.

Animals heading to slaughter should not see other animals killed ahead of them‚ should not see the blade or it being sharpened in preparation‚ and should not be placed in an uncomfortable position immediately before the cut.

Eating foods that are permissible and Halal helps us avoid health risks associated with non-Halal foods.All of God’s commandments are meant not only for his worship, but they also incur a benefit, either spiritual or physical, for all those who follow them.
