Prof. Abbas Shouman, President of the World Organization for al-Azhar Graduates and Secretary General of al-Azhar Council of Senior Scholars, stressed that eating cultured meat is not permitted, except under the following three conditions: first, taking a cell from an animal slaughtered according to the Islamic Shari\u2019a and not to be taken from a living animal or a non-slaughtered dead animal, unless it is a fish or Locust. Second, the nutrition of the cultured cell should be free from filthy things such as spilt blood. Third, the cultured meat should be proven harmless to human health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The seminar was organized under the title of \u201cThe Ruling on Eating Meat Cultured from Animals, Genetically Modified Foods and Insects\u201d, where it was affirmed that what has been tackled during the seminar agrees with what is endorsed by al-Azhar Council of Senior Scholars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
