18 Jamadul Ukhra 1437 (28 March 2016) In a desperate attempt to save face and to minimize the effect of the cancellation of its so-called halaal status, the MJC sought to bamboozle the Muslim public by claiming that the fracas is merely a technical issue. Far from this blatantly false, abortive and hopeless attempt to resuscitate its deceptive halaal status, the Director General of the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia, kicking out the MJC from its earlier recognition, wrote the following letter to the MJC carrion racketeers: DIRECTOR GENERAL DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC DEVELOPMENT MALAYSIA IN THE PRIME MINISTER S DEPARTMENT Telephone : +603 8886 4000 LEVEL 9, BLOCK D7, COMPLEX D Fax : +603 889 2033 FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ADMINISTRATIVE CENTRE Email : hjothman@islam.gov.my 62519 PUTRAJAYA, MALAYSIA Website : http://www.islam.gov.my 1 / 9

Despite Jakim s modernity and liberality, it has cancelled the so-called halaal status of the MJC carrion halaalizer. Thus, the Director General states with emphasis in his letter to the MJC: 7 / 9
WITHDRAWAL OF MUSLIM JUDICIAL COUNCIL HALAAL TRUST (MJCHT) AS A RECOGNIZED INTERNATIONAL HALAL CERTIFICATION BODY IN SOUTH AFRICA....Therefore we are regretting to inform that MJCHT is no longer a JAKIM s recognized body. Jakim lists three primary areas of malpractices of the MJC, which prompted it to kick the MJCHT out of its scope of recognition. While all three irregularities discovered so belately by the modernist Jakim, are exceptionally serious malpractices, Muslims should reflect with greater intent on the irregularity marked (c) which states: Audit finding during site visit to County Fair, Epping, Industria, South Africa: Based on the finding during the site visit on November 9, 2015, we found that your audit program is not complying with the Malaysian Protocol for the Halal Meat and Poultry Productions which: 1. i. The slaughter acts are not completely sever the trachea (hulqum), esophagus (mari) and both the carotid arteries and jugular veins (wadajain); (In other words, the acts of slaughter by the killers do not correctly sever the requisite neck vessels as required by the Shariah The Majlis) 2. ii. Halal checker (s) are not presentable in the slaughter hall;(i.e. lack of supervision The Majlis) and 3. iii. Non-conformance birds are not recorded accordingly. (i.e. the incorrectly killed chickens are passed off as halaal The Majlis) 8 / 9
For decades The Majlis has been warning the Muslim public of the haraam malpractices and shenanigans of MJC, SANHA, NIHT, etc., and we have been consistently howling about the carrion which the MJC and the other members of the Carrion Cartel are feeding the Ummah. Now, here comes a modernist body (Jakim) to which the MJC had managed to get itself temporary affiliated, and it (Jakim), after making a physical inspection of the County Fair chicken killing plant discovered, in addition to other malpractices, that the necks of the chickens are incorrectly cut. The requisites of the Shariah are not complied with. For us, this is old hat. The carrion devourers should now sit up and reflect on the moral and spiritual destruction they have caused to themselves by gluttonously devouring the haraam carrion which the MJC, SANHA, NIHT and other shaitaani carrionists are halaalizing. The aforementioned letter makes it abundantly clear that the MJC is not conforming at all to the Shariah. Now when even a modernist body has damned the MJC, it is much food for thought, for its is a case of a stinking skunk proclaiming and shrinking from the awful stench of another skunk. When a skunk can smell the rotten odour of another skunk or of another entity, then indeed it is something which requires deep contemplation. SANHA should not gloat and chuckle at the discomfort and fall of the MJC. Allah Ta ala will yet utterly humiliate this evil carrion halaalizer as well. There is not much difference between the MJC and SANHA. They are corrupt and rotten birds of the same feather. Every dog gets its day. The Haqq has arrived and baatil has perished, for verily, Baatil by ts very nature must perish. (Qur aan) 9 / 9
