anselm791: was it not Jesus dat says wot a man ate cannot defy him but wotsoeva comes out of him... Besides, apostle paul also told d colosians (col 2:16) dat dey should nt allow any1 2 judge em about wot dy eat nd wot dy drink or in respect of certain holy day or god..... So to me its a matter of conscience, if ur conscience z judging u dnt eat it nd vice versa. So i dnt see any big deal in eatn it in as much as i wil bless nd sanctify it b4 eatn it. 1 Like |

SirHouloo:1 corinthians 10:20 But i say that the things which the gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and i would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. 21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils. Ileya meat is not just ordinary meat, special prayer is offered bfor killing it; it is a sacrifice muslims must offer to their god yearly. 1 Like |

Ovacoma:Your ignorance no get part 2. If you were told this, go slap whoever did. If you assumed it yourself, slap yourself. Before any Muslim kills any meat, he/she says a little prayer. Sallah or no Sallah. Maybe you need to stop eating meat from the local abattoir then cos they are prayed on 1 Like |

Let me clear out the misconception. Ileya meat is not a sacrifice to any idol rather is a sacrifice to Allah(GOD) We do it in line of the messenger of God Abraham when a ram was used in replacement of his son Ishmail (suratul swafat) to make sacrifice for Allah(GOD) so please illaya is not a sacrifice to idol, and before the ram is slaughtered we say, IN THE NAME OF ALLAH(GOD) THE GREATEST, then it is safe for eating and if the prayer is not said, then the meat is unlawful (dat is u can't eat it or give it out) 1 Like |

Here is what the bible says about it: if your conscience does not condemn you and it does not make another Christian faith shake, then go ahead and eat, even the ones offered to idols, else don't. The bible's New Testament position is that what we eat does not make unclean. It's what comes out of us that makes us unclean. For me, I dey chop am, no shaking! 1 Corinthians 8 |

Re: Is It Okay For A Christian To Eat Ileya Meat? by Nobody: 10:36am On Oct 05, 2014 |
The solution to this question is simple as ABC. Whenever you are celebrating Sallah, invite friend, neighbor etc. to your house for the feast; anybody that shows up have no problem with sallah/ileya meat. In other word, don't offer meat, offer invitations. Hence, nobody is offended (both the "giver" and the "givee" ) and no meat is wasted. |

idu1: Mallam, God do not need your animal any more, Jesus Christ has already paid the price, by allowing Himself to be sacrificed and used as the sacrificial Lamb for the atonement of the sin of mankind. |

michaelwestern:Hey bro, no need to be sentimental about this, this topic is very wide, but I will just say the little I can. Yes, It is a sacrifice but is every sacrifice a sin? It’s true we slaughter the animals but do we perform any strange rites or do we put these animals at shrines or at mosques for God to eat? We only slaughter some specified animal as stated in our holy book just like how animals are slaughtered when people are celebrating ceremonies, we eat and even share the meat with our neighbours and friends who can’t afford to buy one. Are other sacrifices you have witnessed or heard of done this way? What is wrong if Allah set out a special day to celebrate and remember an occasion that that is even in the Bible (remember story of Abraham and his son) and for you to really know you are being sentimental, judging from what you wrote, you definitely want it compared with that of the idol worshippers whereas you can clearly note the difference. And please before you write or post anything brother, you should have a clear and deep understanding and not a vague idea about probably from what you have heard people say. You may eat the meat or may not, it’s your choice. May God continue to enlighten us? |

Read the whole of 1 Corinthians 10 and you will see that it is talking about idol worship. 1 Corinthians 8 talks about meat! Don't quote the bible out of context please!! |
