Qurbaani & Halaal SlaughterLaws pertaining to the Slaughterer

Question

My sister is in Russia. She gets halaal chickens at the masjid. She now found out that the chickens are slaughtered by a non muslim, and a muslim person says the tasmiya. What is the halaal status of these chickens?

Answer

If the one slaughtering is a non-muslim, the slaughtered chickens will not be halaal.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
