- O ye people! Eat of what is on earth, lawful and good; and do not follow the footsteps of the Evil One, for he is to you an avowed enemy.” (Al-Baqarah: 168)
- “O you who believe (in the Oneness of Allah)! Eat of the good things that We have provided you, and be grateful to Allah if it is (indeed) He Whom you worship”. (Al-Baqarah: 172)
- l”Eat of that which Allah hath provided for you lawful and good; but fear Allah, in Whom ye believe.” (Al Maidah: 88)
The Halal certificate is an official document that ensures products and services intended for the Muslim community comply with Islamic law, making them suitable for consumption in both Muslim-majority countries and Western nations with significant Muslim populations, such as GCC countries, Saudi Arabia, Middle East, Malaysia, Indonesia, Turkey, Oman, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Spain and rest of the world. The Halal certification process verifies that products meet the specific standards set by the Islamic Council, allowing the use of the Halal mark. This certification primarily applies to meat products but also encompasses a wide range of food items, including dairy, canned goods, and additives, ensuring they align with Halal guidelines.
