What is Halal?
The arabic word
(Halal) means
lawful. In the Holy Quran, Allah commands Muslims and all of mankind to
eat of the Halal things. Among the many verses of the Quran that convey this
message, here are a few.
O makind! Eat of that which is lawful
and wholesome in the earth, and follow not the footsteps of the devil. Lo! he is
an open enemy for you. (2:168)
O ye who believe! Eat of the good
things wherewith we have provided you, and render thanks to Allah if it is
(indeed) He Whom ye worship. (2:172)
Eat of that which Allah hath bestowed
on you as food lawful and good, and keep your duty to Allah in Whom ye are
believers. (5:88)
