* Halal, as per Quran, means ‘permitted’ or ‘lawful’. Halal certification is necessary for food, cosmetics and other products which come in direct contact with food items. In many countries like: Middle east, Saudi Arabia, Iran etc. Halal certification is necessary to sell the food items.

* Halal is often used in reference to foods and drinks, i.e. foods that are allowable for Muslims to eat or drink under Islamic Sheridan (law). The criteria specify both what foods are allowable, and how the food must be ready. The foods addressed are mostly types of meat and animal tissue.

* Halal Certification ensures that the food product is deemed safe for consumption. Halal promotes cleanliness in all aspects of a person and halal foods ensure that food consumed by a person in their daily lives are clean, hygienic and not detrimental to their health or well-being.
