The  understanding that pronouncing of the name can be while or before eating  is not inline with the wording of the verse (the passive verb that is  used for \u2018pronouncing\u2019). Also this understanding does not fit with a  related verse that comes earlier, i.e. verse 119. It does not make any  sense to consider verse 119 to refer to any point of time other than  when slaughtering the animal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Farhad Shafti<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-03-23<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"5909\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Me  and my wife live in Norway and like so many Muslims in the west we also  face the issue of halal food\/meat several times in our daily lives.
