Let me guess, a Saudi University? The same one doing the camel urine studies?


Probably  Tongue

The original Schultz study (translated from the original German) which made the rather bold claim that animals feel no pain.

In light of evidence from subsequent studies, I wouldn't go so far. However ECG monitoring indicates that the animal loses all sense of pain in a matter of seconds.

Here's a good overview of the evidence in favour of non-stunning kosher slaughter (which has no meaningful difference to halal slaughter):
http://www.shechitauk.org/uploads/tx_resources/Physiological_insights_into_Shech...

All that being said, stunning is not incompatible with halal slaughter - indeed all Australian halal slaughter must use pre-stunning. And in an ideal world, proper stunning should be performed. However the reality of our current industrialised slaughterhouses is that we simply don't practice anything close to humane stunning - whether its because of the priority placed on profits rather than animal welfare, or we don't have the right technology. Chickens are the worst, as I mentioned earlier in this thread - it is absolutely horrific. So in view of this, its probably not true to say that proper halal slaughter - even without stunning and accounting for a few seconds of pain - is less humane than the current industrialised slaughterhouses-of-horror.

Let me get this straight - you're arguing for horrific slaughter methods for chickens because your sinister prophet has ordered you inflict pain and suffering on innocent animals.

Thanks for that. This is entirely consistent with your method of killing humans, so it should come as no surprise to those of us who know all about your so-called religion of "peace".

No wonder it took you so long to answer a simple question. You were holding off, waiting for the press release from the Grand Mufti to dish up to non-Moslems.

No need to play that game with us. We know all about Taqqiya, you know.

I was about to ban myself from this pagan board until I read this. From a turd burglar too, who would have thought?

Thank you for your answer.

And to answer adamant - yes the cruel hypocricy of some muslim slaughterers is no surprise and no revelation.

And thanks for not dancing about the issue. Yes, the same could be said for some people, whatever their religious persuasion.


The Koran promotes the consumption of camel urine. There are universities in the middle east where Muslim academics work diligently to prove that it has genuine medicinal value. It's a bit like Gandalf trying to argue that the context makes cutting an animals throat more human than stunning.

Serious question here FD - do you think there is there a single thread here where you haven't invented something about muslims or their scriptures? is it really too much to ask to just get some of the basic facts right?

No deary, I didn't say anything about context. Please get a grasp of what I said:

There is more than enough evidence collected from animals rights groups to safely conclude that the current procedures, including stunning, is not ideal from a humanitarian perspective. Especially for chickens. And yet, here I am still calling for stunning prior to slaughter - just not half-arsed stunning.

Forget who it was, but they quoted scripture (seeing as we otherwise wouldn't believe such nonsense).

Dunno but a quick google found this,

The hadeeth referred to by the questioner is a saheeh hadeeth, in which it says that some people came to Madeenah and fell sick. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) told them to drink the milk and urine of camels, and they recovered and grew fat. In the story it also says that they apostatized and killed the camel-herder, then the Muslims caught them and executed them. Narrated by al-Bukhaari (2855) and Muslim (1671).

Gandhi promoted the drinking of cow urine. He also consumed his own.

I blame the tinted races. Correlation not causation, innit.

And Allaah knows best.

The benefits of drinking camel urine
ar
I hope that you can provide me with a scientific answer – if such knowledge is available – about the saheeh hadeeth about drinking camel’s urine. May Allaah reward you.

Praise be to Allaah.

The hadeeth referred to by the questioner is a saheeh hadeeth, in which it says that some people came to Madeenah and fell sick. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) told them to drink the milk and urine of camels, and they recovered and grew fat. In the story it also says that they apostatized and killed the camel-herder, then the Muslims caught them and executed them. Narrated by al-Bukhaari (2855) and Muslim (1671).

With regard to the health benefits of drinking the milk and urine of camels, they are many, and they are well known to the earlier generations of medical science and they have been proven by modern scientific research.

Ibn al-Qayyim said:

The author of al-Qanoon (the Canon) – i.e. the doctor Ibn Seena (Avicenna) – said:

The most beneficial of urine is the urine of Bedouin camels which are called najeeb. End quote.

Zaad al-Ma’aad (4/47, 48).

In the Emirati newspaper al-Ittihaad (issue no. 11172, Sunday 6 Muharram 1427 AH/5 February 2006) it says:

One of the most important things for which camels are raised is their milk, which is efficacious in treating many illnesses, including hepatitis, and the digestive system in general, various types of cancer and other diseases.

In an article by Dr Ahlaam al-‘Awadi, which was published in al-Da’wah magazine, issue no. 1938, 25 Safar 1425 AH/15 April 2004 CE, about the diseases which can be treated with camel’s milk, as proven by experience, it says that there are many benefits in camel’s milk. There follows some of what was said in the article by Dr. Ahlaam:

Camel’s urine is efficacious in the treatment of skin diseases such as ringworm, tinea and abscesses, sores that may appear on the body and hair, and dry and wet ulcers. Camel’s urine brings the secondary benefits of making the hair lustrous and thick, and removing dandruff from the scalp. Camel’s milk is also beneficial in treating hepatitis, even if it has reached an advanced stage where medicine is unable to treat it. End quote.

In the al-Jazeerah al-Sa’oodiyyah newspaper (issue no. 10132, Rabee’ al-Awwal 1421 AH) there is a quotation from the book Al-Ibl Asraar wa i’jaaz (The camel: secrets and wonders) by Darmaan ibn ‘Abd al-‘Azeez Aal Darmaan and Sanad ibn Mutlaq al-Subay’i:

As for camel’s urine, the book suggests that it has numerous uses which are beneficial for man. This is indicated by the Prophetic texts and confirmed by modern science … Scientific experiments have proven that camel’s urine has a lethal effect on the germs that cause many diseases.

Among the uses of camel’s urine, many women use it to wash their hair, to make it longer, and to make it lighter and more lustrous. Camel’s urine is also efficacious in the treatment of swelling of the liver and other diseases such as abscesses, sores that appear on the body and toothache, and for washing eyes. End quote.

Prof. Dr. ‘Abd al-Fattaah Mahmoud Idrees says: With regard to the benefits of camel’s urine in treating disease, Ibn Seena said in his Qanoon: The most beneficial of urine is the urine of the Bedouin camels known as najeeb. Camel’s urine is beneficial in treating al-hazaaz, and it was said that al-hazzaz is a pain in the heart caused by anger and so on. Camel’s urine, especially the urine of a young she-camel – is used as a cleansing substance to wash wounds and sores, to make the hair grow, to strengthen and thicken it and to prevent it falling out, and it is used to treat diseases of the scalp and dandruff. In a Master’s thesis by an engineer in applied chemistry, Muhammad Awhaaj Muhammad, that was submitted to the faculty of applied chemistry in the al-Jazeerah university in Sudan, and approved by the Dean of science and postgraduate studies in the university in November 1998 CE, entitled A Study of the Chemical Composition and Some Medical Uses of the Urine of Arabian Camels, Muhammad Awhaaj says:

Laboratory tests indicate that camel’s urine contains high levels of potassium, albuminous proteins, and small amounts of uric acid, sodium and creatine.

In this study, he explained that what prompted him to study the medicinal properties of camel’s urine was what he had seen of some tribesmen drinking this urine whenever they suffered digestion problems. He sought the help of some doctors in studying camel’s urine. They brought a number of patients and prescribed this urine for them, for a period of two months. Their bodies recovered from what they had been suffering from, which proves the efficacy of camel’s urine in treating some diseases of the digestive system.

It also proves that this urine is useful in preventing hair loss. He says:

Camel’s urine acts as a slow-acting diuretic, but it does not deplete potassium and other salts as other diuretics do, because camel’s urine contains a high level of potassium and proteins. It has also been proven to be effective against some types of bacteria and viruses. It brought about an improvement in the condition of twenty-five patients who used camel’s urine for dropsy, without disrupting their potassium levels. Two of them
