Inside a halal slaughterhouse, where the knives are sharp and tradition endures | Public Radio International

Inside a halal slaughterhouse, where the knives are sharp and tradition endures | Public Radio International: "It's a messy process. This is a slaughterhouse after all. But there’s a prayer: Allahu Akbar. God is great in Arabic.

Then things move very quickly and precisely. Mayar says the idea is for the animal to suffer as little as possible. “It takes seconds to kill these animals in a really humane way,” he says.

The blood also drains quickly and fully. You’re not going to see a rare, bloody halal piece of meat — ever. And soon the animal is off to the meat locker. "
