Yes, Muslims can eat beef, provided that it is slaughtered according to Halal practices (Dhabiha).
Per Isalm religion teachings, Muslims can eat beef.

Halal ,

Islam has laws regarding which foods can and cannot be eaten and also on the proper method of slaughtering an animal for consumption, known as dhabiĥa.

Explicitly forbidden substances

A variety of substances are considered as harmful (haraam) for humans to consume and, therefore, forbidden as per various Quranic verses:

  • Pork meat (i.e. flesh of swine)[Qur'an 2:173]
  • Blood[Qur'an 2:173]
  • Animals slaughtered in the name of anyone but Allah (God). There are debates regarding the permissibility of meat slaughtered by Jews (i.e., kosher meat).[Qur'an 2:173]
  • Carrion[Qur'an 5:3]
  • "Fanged beasts of prey" as per the Sunnah, usually simplified to all carnivorous animals, with the exception of most fish and sea animals
  • The meat of donkeys.
  • All insects except for the locust (no reference)
  • Alcohol and other intoxicants

There is some disagreement among Muslims regarding seafood, especially predatory sea creatures. IFANCA (Islamic Food and Nutrition Council of America) states, regarding the opinion of Islamic scholars:

  • All are in agreement that fish with scales are halal.
  • Sunnis consider all fish to be halal, while some Shias consider only shrimp and fish with scales to be halal.
  • Within the Hanafi school of thought, the stronger position is that shellfish (shrimp, lobster, crab, clams, etc.) are prohibited]. But in the other three schools (Malaki, Shafi, Hanbali) crab and lobster are permissible.

Dhabiha: Method of slaughter

Dhabiha is the prescribed method of ritual slaughter of all animals excluding fish and most sea-life per Islamic law. This method of slaughtering animals consists of a swift, deep incision with a sharp knife on the neck, cutting the jugular veins and carotid arteries of both sides but leaving the spinal cord intact.

Kosher and Halal

There is a great deal of similarity between the laws of Dhabiĥa halal and kashrut, and there are also various differences. Whether or not Muslims can use kashrut standards as a replacement for halal standards is an ongoing debate, and the answer depends largely on the individual being asked. While some Muslim halal authorities accept kosher meat as halal, none of the Jewish kosher authorities accept meat certified as halal as kosher due to different
