He hath forbidden you only carrion, and blood, and swineflesh, and that which hath been immolated to (the name of) any other than Allah. But he who is driven by necessity, neither craving nor transgressing, it is no sin for him. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

Is KFC Halal?

Not in Canada that I know of

A Bangladeshi girl told me that her Imam gave her permission to eat KFC in Canada. 

I wouldn't doubt dah wicked banna tell the girl she could eat something else too. Rooster taraasss.

A Jew soldier from Portland told me once that he is not allowed by his religion to eat  scallops, clams, lobsters, shrimp, crabs and oysters.  Is it the same thing in Islam?

If there was moment in your life and you were starving to death, and the only thing to eat that was available to save your life was the meat of the pig. Will it be allowed?

Not as per Quran, but some denominations do not eat it.  I don think any Guyanese follow that rule.

Hope everyone having a good Ramadan so far, today is already the 7th day.

Thanks for clarifying guys. Chief I am listening to the audio each day.
