The easiest thing. DOnot invite any Muslims. They guys are confusing you.
Here is the definition or requirements to have Halal meat.
To Muslims, Halal meat should be slaughtered by a believer (Muslim, Christian, Jew).
For a Muslim to slay the animal, should use a very sharp knife, say "In the name of God", and then make sure to cut properly the neck veins or arteries (whatever) in one go. animal blood should drain properly.
The issue of Halal started when some farms started using the method of electric shock or something like that based on some Animal right groups that were considering using the knife is brutal or "in-human" whatever.
But again I insist. Until the 80s of last century, this Halal issue was not there and we were only concerned about avoiding pork.
Seems some like to complicate the issues. Making religions and cultural/human relations such a complexity.
What if you have never been to a Muslim country and never heard about Halal, and you invite some Muslim friends. Then you will never know about this issue at all.
