For Halal Products:
For a product to be Halal (lawful) for Muslim consumption all its ingredients should be Halal. Follow the following list:
– Read the ingredients on label carefully. Ingredients are listed according to the amounts present. The first ingredient listed is present in the largest amount.
– Identify the Halal/Haram/Mushbooh status of each ingredient using this guide.
– Search the ingredient name in the list and its status will be next to it.
– If all ingredients of a product are Halal, the product is fit for Muslim consumption.
– If any of the ingredient is Haram, the product should not be consumed.
– If any ingredient falls under Mushbooh category avoid this product, as the Prophet has advised us to avoid doubtful matters. This ingredient could come from a Haram source. To find out the status of this ingredient you should write or call the manufacturer of the product
For Meat:
The Qur’an lists the following meat as haraam (not halal, or unlawful):
– The meat of an animal that dies of any natural causes
– Blood
– Pig meat and pork by products such as Gelatine made from pork. [Gelatin made from other animals, for example, fish is acceptable]
– Meat not slaughtered in the name of Allah
– The meat of an animal killed by:
– Strangulation
– Beating
– Falling
– Gored (e.g. by the horn of another animal)
– Any meat used in sacrificial ceremonies to idols
– Any meat sacrificed on a stone altar
– Intoxicants, which includes alcohol
– Seafood is considered halal.
All vegetarian and vegan food is considered inherently halal, and is therefore unrestricted.
It is halal to consume any of the items above if consumed under reasonable circumstances of survival, and not simply consumed through disobedience.

List of Halal Food & Ingredient

Halal: Halal is a Quranic term which means allowed or lawful. Halal foods and drinks are permitted for consumption by Allah-the Supreme Law Giver. Eating Halal is obligatory on every Muslim.
Prophet(s) Muhammad is reported to have said:
“Halal is clear and Haram is clear; in between these two are certain things that are suspected. Many people may not know whether those items are Halal or Haram. Whosoever leaves them, he is innocent towards his religion and his conscience. He is, therefore, safe. Anyone who gets involved in any of these suspected items, he may fall into the unlawful and the prohibited. This case is similar to the one who wished to raise his animals too close to a restricted area, so that the animals may step into that area. Indeed for every landlord there is a restricted area. Indeed the restriction of Allah are the Haram.” (Sahih Bukhari & Sahih Muslim)
