The chicken is machine-slaughtered and not certified Zabiha Halal.
A major American fast-food chain specializing in chicken sandwiches.
Chick-fil-A sources its chicken from massive commercial poultry suppliers in the US. These chickens are machine-slaughtered, often stunned using water baths, and the name of Allah is not pronounced over each bird. Therefore, it does not meet the requirements for Zabiha Halal meat.
While a minority of scholars allow meat from "People of the Book" (Ahl al-Kitab) regardless of slaughter method, the vast majority of scholars in the US agree that modern commercial machine-slaughtered poultry without the Tasmiyah is not halal.
Avoid the chicken. You can opt for their fries (cooked in canola oil) or a fruit cup, but be aware of cross-contamination risks in the kitchen.
