Question

Are we allowed to sell Non-Zabiha meat including pork? I am trying to open a restaurant in which there will be Non-Zabiha chicken and meat, may be pig too. I am not sure of the legality of the act. Please confirm if this is halal.

Answer

How can you promote and sell something to others that yourself consider to be bad?

What God has made Haram, is Haram for the whole human being not just for the followers of His religion. As the followers of the religion of God, we should not contribute in consumption of Haram.

There could be some flexibility in this if you were saying that you were only a member of staff in the place and had therefore no choice. However since you are going to be the owner of the place I do not see any excuses.
