I wanted to ask you all a question regarding halal foods ,like for example when in Australia or New Zealand it is almost impossible or rather very hard to find halal meat so what is the ruling on such situation I know most of u live in such countries so......

As'salamu Alaikum dear brother,
It is always best to eat Muslim Halal or Jewish Kosher meat. Both are bloodless and have the Name of GOD Almighty invoked on them. But if you can't find either, then go for the Christians' stores and buy meat from there. Make sure you invoke the Name of GOD Almighty on your meat, which we anyway do every time before we eat even with Halal meat. Otherwise, try to eat sea food.
And Allah Almighty always Knows best.
Take care,
Osama Abdallah

So we Muslims can eat meat from Christian or Jewish stores which invoke the name of God and not like the meat from slaughter houses,thanks for the info

As'salamu Alaikum,
You are welcome, dear brother. Muslims are not unanimous regarding eating non-halal meat. There are Muslim scholars that give the ok, and others say no. The ones that say ok rely on Allah Almighty's permission for us to eat from the people of the Book's food:
