[0:00][Music] one point I would say to these people who believe that

[0:09]slaughtering animals is inhumane because that's their arguments right I don't believe

[0:14]in the sacrifice and animal you're killing an animal for your joy

[0:18]so that's what they're saying right this argument is not valid for

[0:27]a number of reasons first of all an animal like a sheep

[0:31]dying on its own is more painful than it being slaughtered the

[0:36]Islamic way did you know that the Islamic way of slaughtering the

[0:44]Sheep is the most merciful way to the animal because immediately there's

[0:48]a religion of Islam says with a sharp knife immediately all the

[0:53]four veins arteries are to be severed when that happens immediately when

[0:59]the blood is gushing with so much force immediately the animal becomes

[1:06]one unconscious it's no longer feeling any pain if you do it

[1:11]the Islamic way it's not really painful for the animal now you

[1:14]could argue but I see the animal you know struggling right with

[1:18]its hand and its feet the reason why it's struggling is not

[1:24]out of pain it's because when the blood is leaving and the

[1:27]animal becomes unconscious you have muscle contraction and spasm in the body

[1:32]of the animal that's just a natural reaction of the muscle being

[1:38]contracted it's not because the animals in pain the animals not feeling

[1:42]anything at that point but if you let an animal grow up

[1:44]to be old and then die and get sick get sick and

[1:49]die that's more painful that is more painful so unless parrot Allah

[1:56]is merciful Allah will not tell us to do something that is

[1:59]cruel and it's important to understand that and one final note here

[2:03]by the way according to Islamic law I you know I don't

[2:08]want to surprise you but according to Islamic law it's not recommended

[2:12]to be vegan or vegetarian eating too much meat is highly unrecognized

[2:17]it's bad for your health it's bad for your spirituality that's why

[2:22]a hadith attributed to Al Imam Ali bin Abi Talib Ani Salam

[2:24]he says don't make your stomach's the graveyards of animal of animals

[2:29]be moderate however Islamic law encourages us highly at least once every

[2:36]40 days at least once a week is good once a month

[2:42]but at least once every 40 days 40 days to eat meat

[2:46]and by the way go and do research those people who are

[2:49]strictly vegetarian or vegan it has a number of emotional and psychological

[2:54]consequences eating meat is beneficial for the growth of the body for

[3:02]the development of the brain and also for your emotion psychology and

[3:07]your spirit it's healthy and the best type of meat in Islamic

[3:11]law is what anyone knows lamb exactly lamb is the best type

[3:18]of meat and Islamic law it has the best effects on the

[3:23]body other types of meat chicken and beef there Haddad there halal

[3:27]I I reiterate don't get scared there Hollande but there unrecognized it

[3:31]it's makrooh so when something is my crew don't eat it on

[3:36]a daily basis you know occasionally one eats it some people have

[3:40]the habit every single day they eat beef according to Islamic law

[3:43]that's not good it's to avoid so eating meats brothers and sisters

[3:49]is actually good for your spiritual health your psychological health it's actually

[3:54]good people who are strictly vegetarian and vegan it has a number

[4:00]of negative consequences so that's what I would recommend that you say

[4:05]to this person that if you analyze this this actually is humane

[4:08]to the animal and I by the way studies have been performed

[4:12]I've seen studies an animal that is being slaughtered according to Islamic

[4:17]law they put these electrodes on their brain because when an animal

[4:21]experiences pain there's a part in the brain that shows activity where

[4:25]you can tell using that device that the animals going through pain

[4:30]they put these electrodes on a sheep or animals that were being

[4:35]slaughtered the Islamic way and then they compared it to sheep that

[4:38]were being slaughtered by shots or some other Western methods those animals

[4:44]that were given shots or any other type of way there was

[4:50]so much pain in the area of the brain when it was

[4:52]measured but the Islamic way as soon as the animal was being

[4:58]slaughtered initially there was just a little bit of activity then it

[5:01]went away that activity because it makes the brain unconscious [Music] you
