It does not stop here, certain opportunist would sell anything that is edible. Besides, how sure we are that the meat always comes from the healthy and properly sacrificed animal? I believe the only time we get to eat healthy and halal meat is when we sacrifice the animal ourselves our during the Eid-ul-Adha. Certain members will be surprised to learn that my father NEVER took us out for having lunch or dinner, though my Mom was never happy with this habit of my father. He is of opinion that anything can be prepared at home and will be healthier and tastier. He even used to make ice cream at home.
OK, is there any solution to this problem? I guess many things could be done but should be initiated at the community level. Pakistanis look towards their government for the solution of every problem and in my opinion it is not very healthy nor practical. What is the big deal if every month 5 or 10 houses from a single neighborhood (mohalla) get to buy a live animal, sacrifice it, and distribute the meat among themselves. Nowadays every household has refrigerator. Same goes for chickens for instance. Just buy a live bird, and clean it up yourself. It hardly takes 10 minutes from sacrifice to making portions.
