question of meats

[revert]

Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

I am a revert and would like the answer to the following

Non Muslim Sister or Brother invite me over for dinner can one still eat that meat as long as it is not pork. Example: Chicken or Beef even though it is not Halal?

Jazak'allah for your question. It is strictly forbidden for a muslim to eat the meat from a place or person who is a non-muslim. It is haram. The meat should in the least have Allahs name recited upon it, at the time of slaughter.
