Re: eating meat from non-muslim supermarkets slaughtered in a non-islamic way

Question:
1.Is it halal to eat the meat (like chicken, cow , goath, etc and products that contain these meats) from non-muslim supermarkets slaughtered in a non-islamic way (without basmala) ?

Meat that has not been slaughtered islamically cannot be eaten, even in small amounts. To do so is an enormous sin. Saying bismillaah does not not change this.

Question:
2.Is it halal to eat fish from those supermarkets?

Yes, fish is allowed to eat, even if caught by a kafir, because it does not require slaughtering.
