Was in town (nr. Cheetham Hill) yesterday and after training with a mate (who is Muslim)
we decided to grab some food at a nearby takeaway (which clearly advertised Halal meat for sale)

We both ordered chicken tikka kebabs on naan, not mentioning the word "halal" when we ordered.
The guy making the order took these fine chunks of marinated chicken and put them on one kebab, then went for a separate tray and put this other chicken on the other kebab - and this chicken looked dry, thin, cheap like the ready to eat chicken you get at Tesco.
The guy on the till passed over the first kebab to my Muslim friend and said: he is your halal chicken tikka kebab, and passed over mine and said: here you go.

I asked: "why am I being given this less quality of meat even though it's the same price?
The guy working there says: "sorry, we don't serve halal meat to non-muslims.

So i say: "how do you know I'm not a muslim?"
and then I say: "As-salamu alaykum" and give him a wink.


So I was left wondering: is this legal to refuse halal meat to non-muslims?
It's never happened to me before, I've been served Halal meat and there's been no issue.
I requested they serve me the better looking meat to which they still refused and my Muslim mate in solidarity gave me his kebab and said something I didn't understand to the takeaway owner in Urdu quite aggressively... and he walked out.

I wasn't complaining as I ended up with the better kebab anyway, but it's shit like this that just causes unneeded tension.
 
Would any establishment selling Halal meat have non-Halal meat for sale too? I doubt it. Something isn't right with this story.
 
I call bullshit on the op, post history proves it.
No take away selling halal,especially in Cheetham hill would stock non halal (haram) meat.
 
10 years in a diverse East End of London and a few years in Rusholme as a student says to me this practice doesn't happen. I tucked in to a chicken tikka roll myself in Kebabish on the Barking Road after karaoke last night and was greeted as warmly as ever. I'm certainly not a Muslim either.

Why always Ste? Why always bullshitting?

I WANT MY HALAL CHICKEN KEBAB..........

The Muslims in my city are always eager to sell us halal. In fact the halal meat often seems to be higher quality. Never seen a Muslim businessman give a damn as long as the money is green.

Go leave a nasty review on Yelp.
