WHAT IS
HALAL
EXACTLY?
EXACTLY?
Halal is an Arabic term that signifies what is permissible or lawful according to Islamic teachings. It encompasses a wide range of practices and principles that guide the lifestyle of Muslims, including those related to food, drinks, personal care, finance, and more. In the context of food, Halal refers to dietary laws that dictate what is permissible for consumption, with specific guidelines on sourcing, preparation, and handling of food products. It prohibits the consumption of pork, alcohol, and any food items containing ingredients derived from animals not slaughtered according to Islamic rituals.
Halal extends to other sectors such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, tourism, and more, where compliance with Islamic principles and ethical standards is important. Halal also encompasses various aspects of life, promoting ethical and sustainable practices, fair trade, animal welfare, and social responsibility. Adhering to Halal principles is not only a religious obligation for Muslims but also a lifestyle choice for individuals seeking products and services that align with their values of integrity, purity, and compassion.
