*Dhabiha requires that God's (see [[اللہ (اسلام)|]]) name be pronounced before each slaughter.<ref name="shariah program slaughtering"/> Some Muslims have accorded meat to be halal but not necessarily dhabiha; in other words, kosher meat is considered halal by some Muslims. This is according to the Hadith: "[I]t is narrated by Al Bukhari from Aisha the Prophet Muhammad's wife, that some people came to him and said, Oh God's Prophet, some people bring us meat and we do not know if they pronounced the name of God on it or not, and he said pronounce you the name of God and eat." Dhabiha meat by definition is meat that is slaughtered in the shariah manner and the name of God is said before the slaughter. In Shechita, a blessing to God is recited before beginning an uninterrupted period of slaughtering; as long as the [[شحیطہ]] does not have a lengthy pause, interrupt, or otherwise lose concentration, this blessing covers all the animals slaughtered that period. This blessing follows the standard form for a blessing before most Jewish rituals ("Blesséd are you God ... who commanded us regarding [such-and-such]," in this case, Shechita). The general rule in [[یہودیت]] is that for rituals which have an associated blessing, if one omitted the blessing, the ritual is still valid [see Maimonides Laws of Blessings 11:5]; as such, even if the shochet failed to recite the blessing before Shechita, the slaughter is still valid and the meat is kosher.<ref>Maimonides Laws of Slaughter 1:2 and commentaries ad loc</ref>
*There are no restrictions on what organs or parts of the carcass may be eaten from a ''Halal''-slaughtered and -dressed animal; as long as it was slaughtered and prepared according to the rules of dhabiha halal, the entire animal is fit for consumption by Muslims. However, Kashrut prohibits eating the [[chelev]] (certain types of fat) and ''gid hashoneh'' (the [[sciatic nerve]]), and thus the hindquarters of a kosher animal must undergo a process called ''nikkur'' (or, in [[یدیش زبان]], porging) in order to be fit for consumption by Jews. As nikkur is an expensive, time-consuming process, it is rarely practiced outside of [[اسرائیل]], and the hindquarters of kosher-slaughtered animals in the rest of the world are generally sold on the non-kosher market.<ref>[http://www.isaiowa.org/content.asp?ID=1677 What is Halal?]</ref>
