Relax. Don't make people feel bad about their posts, it makes people not want to post on this site.

I will second the suggestion to feed it to animals. Stray dogs and cats will be more than happy to take your haram meats and animal products off your hands, lol. The cats in my neighborhood love me because of this fact. I also feed them any leftovers that ahve gone bad rather than throw them in the trash. Afterall charity can apply to animals too!

Thats great i will feed it to our cat, never thought of that.

Thanks everyone.

But even though the gelatin is made out of bones of a cow, it still haram since the cow has not been slaughtered in the Islamic way, right?

Some of the Ulema have said that it is not permissible to feed animals with haraam meat either. I will try and find a link for it Insha'Allah.

Edit S read my next post

Asalamu alaikum

My mum went to shop and bought a pack of 6 yogurts. I read the ingrediants and found out it has gelatine in it. I am pretty sure gelatine comes from animals so im pretty sure its haram for muslims to consume.

So what do i do with it. Ive opened the pack so I cant return it.

I shouldnt give it to a disbeliver because thats like giving alcohol to a disbeliver if i had some which is wrong.

Can i just eat it and not buy it again.

I mean i can throw it away but is that permissable because thats like wasting food. Theres so many people starving and im just gonna chuck it in the bin. Doesnt feel right to me.


I am looking for an answer. Any Daleel would be excellent.

Walaikum Salam

I think you can give this food to an animal (for example a cat) , and never through it.

Okay.. I have not been able to find that ruling. But instead I found this :-

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked about cans of cat food that contain pork – is it permissible to buy them and feed them to cats?

He replied: If that is by buying the cans then it is not permissible, because it is not permissible to pay for pork and buy it. But if he finds it thrown away and feeds it to his cat, there is nothing wrong with that. And Allaah knows best.

Salam,
I had my freezer full of chicken and other meat that my parents had bought me. But when I started to eat only halal meat a month ago I throwed it all in the garbage. That was one of my best feelings Don't feel bad from throwing away something that is haram, it should be a great feeling to do even if it's wasting or something you got. Just in case it will happen again then tell your mother about it.
