How does one decide if the meat is halal if he doesn't witness the slaughter?
Anyone can make a claim that a food is halaal. There are food and imported meat that are certified halaal. But, these are imported from Muslim minority countries (like imported chicken from Brazil). So is such a certification sufficient? If not, what are the other requirements that are necessary to...

So is such a certification sufficient? If not, what are the other requirements that are necessary to establish the halal status of a food, if one doesn't witness the slaughter?

This question only pertains to the specific cases mentioned above as we all know that a woman has to cover her arms till her wrists as these areas are the part of sitr. The question has been asked since the Muslimah got no choice as the chemicals interfering with the sleeves may cause her harm ,and during the surgery, sleeves might be quite a big risk when operating on a human body. Plus, the Muslimah covers her arms till her wrists as soon as her work is done.(Answers as per the Hanafi Fiqh would be highly appreciated)

A cousin of mine brought home some Chinese food that he says a friend of his bought for him. When he brought it home, he asked me if I wanted some, but I really fear that the food might be Haram (it was barbeque chicken with some rice) as it was cooked by non Muslims, and I don't know what they might have put in it. So is this food halal?

I have seen symbols on food in supermarkets and restaurants marking the food as halal. I assume that these symbols come from authoritative Muslim food supervision companies. I have also seen Muslims who are careful about halal eat in other restaurants and eat unmarked food after checking all of the ingredients. I also thought that all food was supposed to be considered halal until proven haram.
So, does food need to have a certification in order to be considered safely halal? If not, why do the certifications exist?

asssalamu alaikom everyone
i want to know if it is halal to work on a web application that allows its users to post job offers or post job services like for example a programmer can offer their skills to get hired by a company , or a recruiter can post a job offer to hire someone . but what's crossing my mind is that this app can be used to look for any kind of jobs like for example a bartender can search for a job or a bar owner can look for bartenders etc .
bottom line is that it could be used for good and for evil depending on what the user is looking for
thank you in advance.
