I'm going to list Halal Services obstacles as I have witnessed them personally
over the past thirty years. Like any work of Islamic nature, peoples face
obstacles, because in the end it is a struggle between right and wrong.

to official documents with regard to food and slaughter according to Islamic law.

The following is a summary of the constraints Halal Services have faced during
this period of time (1980-2010).
 The First Obstacle ‫اﻝﻤﻌوق اﻷول‬

‫أزﻤﺔ وﻋﻲ‬
Crisis of awareness

!‫ﻓﻠﻠﺤﻼل ﻤﻌﻨﻰ واﺤد‬

‫وﻝﻜن ﻤﻊ اﻝﻤﺴﺘﻬﻠﻜﻴن‬

Halal has one meaning!
But with consumers
Halal
Has a confused meaning

Halal.

.‫ﺠﺴدﻩ ﺤﺘﻰ ﻻ ﻴﻜون ﻤﺼدرﻫﺎ ﻤن ﺤرام‬

Some believe that prohibition involves only what Muslim

consume of food but it also involve what he/she used or
consume as a drug or cosmetics and skin care products on
his/her body so as not to be the source of the forbidden.
 The Confused meaning of Halal may includes :‫ﻴﺸﻤل ﻫذا اﻝﺘﺸوﻴش ﻝﻤﻔﻬوم اﻝﺤﻼل‬

.‫( ﻋدم ﺘوﻓر ﻤﻌﻠوﻤﺎت ﻀرورﻴﺔ ﺤول ﺘﻜﺎﻤل ﺴﻠﺴﻠﺔ اﻝﺤﻼل‬1

1) the lack of necessary information about the integrity of the complete Halal chain.

‫ﻼ اﻝﻠﺤوم اﻝواردة إﻝﻰ ﺒﻼد‬

ً ‫ ﻓﻤﺜ‬،‫وﻫﻲ اﻝﻤﻌﻠوﻤﺎت اﻝﻀرورﻴﺔ ﺤول ﻤﻜوﻨﺎت اﻝﻤواد اﻝﺨﺎم‬

It is the necessary information about the components of raw materials, for example, imported meat to Muslim
countries for the manufacturing of meat products by local companies of the most famous local
companies: Is it really Halal? Is the full manufacturing chain of these raw meats in the country of origin
Halal? That is, did it come into contact with materials forbidden! I have personally detected traces of
pork in lamb minced meat sold in one of the GCC market.
 ‫ﻜﻤﺎ ﻴﺸﻤل ﻫذا اﻝﺘﺸوﻴش‬
This confused meaning of Halal also include

‫( اﻻرﺘﺒﺎك ﺒﺴﺒب اﻹﺸﺎﻋﺎت أو ﺒﺴﺒب طﻴف ﻤن اﻝﻔﺘﺎوى اﻝﺘﻲ ﻴﺼدرﻫﺎ ﻋﻠﻤﺎء اﻹﻓﺘﺎء ﻝم‬2

2) The confusion because of rumors or due to a spectrum of opinions issued by the scholars of
fatwa that had not seen the facts as they occur and spread among consumers and Halal
service providers.
 The Second Obstacle ‫اﻝﻤﻌوق اﻝﺜﺎﻨﻲ‬

‫ﻻ ﻴوﺠد اﻫﺘﻤﺎم ﺒﺎﻝﺤﻼل‬

There is no interest in Halal

‫ ﻤﻌظم ﺤﻜوﻤﺎت اﻝدول اﻹﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ واﻝﻤﺴﺘﻬﻠﻜﻴن ﻓﻴﻬﺎ‬،ً‫ﻓﻌﻤﻠﻴﺎ‬

‫ﻏﻴر ﺠﺎدﻴن ﻤﻊ ﺼﻨﺎﻋﺔ اﻝﺤﻼل وﺨدﻤﺎﺘﻪ‬
In practice, most governments in Muslim countries and
their consumers are not serious with the Halal industry
and its services
 For example ً‫ﻓﻤﺜﻼ‬

‫ ﻤﻌظم اﻝﺒﻠدان اﻹﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ ﻝدﻴﻬﺎ ﻗﺎﻨون ﻓﻴﻪ اﻝﻌﺒﺎرة‬،ً‫رﺴﻤﻴﺎ‬

:‫اﻝﺘﺎﻝﻴﺔ‬
‫"ﻴﺠب أن ﺘﻜون ﺠﻤﻴﻊ ﺸﺤﻨﺎت اﻝﻠﺤوم اﻝﻤﺴﺘوردة‬
." ‫ﺤﻼل ﺘراﻓﻘﻬﺎ ﺸﻬﺎدة ﺤﻼل‬
ً‫وﻝﻜن ﻋﻤﻠﻴﺎ‬
‫ﻻ ﻴوﺠد ﻗﺎﻨون ﻴﻨظم ﺸﻬﺎدات اﻝﺤﻼل‬
Officially, most Islamic countries have a law with the following
statements:
“All imported meat shipments
Must be accompanied by a Halal certificate. "
But in practice
There is no law regulate Halal certificates
‫ﻓﻘد ورد إﻝﻰ إﺤدى دول اﻝﺨﻠﻴﺞ اﻝﻌرﺒﻲ ﺸﻬﺎدة ﺤﻼل ﻤن وزارة‬
‫ وﻴﺸﻬد ﻓﻴﻬﺎ ﻤوظف اﻝوزارة ﻫﻨﺎك وﻫو‬USDA ‫اﻝزراﻋﺔ اﻷﻤرﻴﻜﻴﺔ‬
.‫ﻏﻴر ﻤﺴﻠم ﺒﺄن ﺸﺤﻨﺔ اﻝﻠﺤوم اﻝﻤرﻓﻘﺔ ﻫﻲ ﺤﻼل‬
It has comes to one of the Arabian Gulf countries a Halal
Certificate from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)
where a non-Muslim employees within that department
declare that the meat shipment is Halal.
 ‫ﺸﻬﺎدة ذﺒﺢ إﺴﻼﻤﻲ‬
‫ﺒﺸﻬﺎدة ﻨﺼراﻨﻲ اﺴﻤﻪ‬
‫إد ﺠوﻨز‬
A Halal Certificate
issued by a Christian
Officials named
Ed Jones
‫ووردت ﺸﻬﺎدة ﺤﻼل أﺨرى ﺼﺎدرة ﻤن ﻤﺼﻨﻊ ﻝﺤوم ﻓﻲ‬
‫ﻨﻴوزﻴﻼﻨدا ﻴﺸﻬد ﻓﻴﻬﺎ ﻤدﻴر اﻝﻤﺼﻨﻊ وﻫو أﻴﻀﺎً ﻏﻴر ﻤﺴﻠم ﺒﺄن‬
.‫ﺸﺤﻨﺔ اﻝﻠﺤوم ﻫﻲ ﺤﻼل‬

Another Halal certificate issued by New Zealand meat

factory where the plant manager who is also a non-Muslim
declare that the meat is Halal.
 ‫ﺸﻬﺎدة ذﺒﺢ إﺴﻼﻤﻲ‬
‫ﺒﺸﻬﺎدة ﺸرﻜﺔ ﻨﺼراﻨﻴﺔ‬
A Halal Certificate issued by a
Christian organization
(here it is the company)
‫وطﺎﻝﻤﺎ أن اﻝﺸﺤﻨﺔ ﻤﺼﺤوﺒﺔ ﺒﻘطﻌﺔ ﻤن اﻝورق ]ﺘﻘول[ أﻨﻬﺎ ﺤﻼل‬
‫ﻓﺈﻨﻬﺎ ﺘﻘﺒل ﻝدى اﻝﺴﻠطﺎت ﻓﻲ اﻝدول اﻹﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ اﻝﻤﺴﺘوردة‬
And as long as the shipment is accompanied by a piece of
paper [says] it is Halal it is accepted by the authorities in the
imported Islamic countries
‫ ﻨﺠد أن ﺒﻌض اﻝﻤﺴﺎﻝﺦ ﻓﻲ دول اﻝﻐرب ﻤﺴﺘﻌدة ﻷن‬،‫ﻝذﻝك‬
‫ﺘﻌﻤل أي ﺸﻲء ﻝﻠﺤﺼول ﻋﻠﻰ ﺸﻬﺎدات ﺤﻼل ﻤن ﻤﺸرﻓﻴن‬
،(‫ﺤﻼل ﻤزﻴﻔﻴن )أي ﻴﻘوﻤون ﺒﺘزوﻴر ﺸﻬﺎدات وأﺨﺘﺎم اﻝﺤﻼل‬
‫وﻴوﻫﻤون اﻝﻤﺴﺘﻬﻠﻜﻴن اﻝﻤﺴﻠﻤﻴن ﺒﻌﺒﺎرات ﻤﻜﺘوﺒﺔ ﺒﺎﻝﻠﻐﺔ‬
:‫اﻝﻌرﺒﻴﺔ أﻨﻬﺎ‬
‫حالل‬
Therefore, we find that some slaughterhouses in the Western
countries willing to do anything to get certificates from a Fake Halal
supervisors (i.e., they are forging Halal certificates and Halal seals),
and pretend to Muslim consumers with the Halal term written in
Arabic.
 ‫اﻝﺨﺘم اﻷﺼﻠﻲ واﻝﻤزور ﻝﻺﺘﺤﺎد اﻷﺴﺘراﻝﻲ ﻝﻠﻤﺠﺎﻝس اﻹﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ‬
The original Seal and fake one of the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils
 ‫اﻝﺨﺘم اﻷﺼﻠﻲ واﻝﻤزور ﻹﺘﺤﺎد اﻝﺠﻤﻌﻴﺎت اﻹﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ ﻓﻲ ﻨﻴوزﻴﻼﻨدا‬
The original Seal and fake one of the Federation of Islamic Associations of New Zealand
 ‫ ﻨﺠد أن ﻤﺠﻤﻊ اﻝﻔﻘﻪ اﻹﺴﻼﻤﻲ اﻝدوﻝﻲ‬،‫ﻝذﻝك‬
‫ﺤذر اﻝدول اﻹﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ ﺒﺄن ﻻ ﺘﻌول ﻜﺜﻴ ارً ﻋﻠﻰ ﻋﻼﻤﺎت اﻝﺤﻼل‬
.‫اﻝﻤﺨﺘوﻤﺔ ﻋﻠﻰ اﻝﻠﺤوم اﻝﻤﺴﺘوردة‬
‫ﻝﻤﺎذا؟‬
‫ﻷن اﻝﻤﻨﺘﺠﻴن ﻓﻲ دول اﻝﻐرب ﻻ ﻴﻌﺒﺌون ﺒﻤﺘطﻠﺒﺎت اﻝﺸرﻴﻌﺔ‬
.‫اﻹﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ‬

Therefore, we find that the International Islamic Fiqh Academy

Warned Islamic countries not count much on the Halal seals signs on imported meat.
Why?
Because producers in the countries of the West does not care for the requirements of
Islamic law.
‫وﻤن اﻷﻤور اﻝﻤزﻋﺠﺔ ﻗﻴﺎم ﺴﻔﺎرات دول ﺨﻠﻴﺠﻴﺔ أو ﻋرﺒﻴﺔ ﺒوﻀﻊ ﺨﺘﻤﻬﺎ‬

‫ﺨﻠف ﺸﻬﺎدات اﻝﺤﻼل ﺘﺸﻬد ﺒﺼﺤﺔ اﻷﺨﺘﺎم اﻝﻤوﺠودة ﻋﻠﻰ اﻝﺸﻬﺎدة دون‬

.‫ﺘﺤﻤل أي ﻤﺴؤوﻝﻴﺔ ﺒﻤﺤﺘوى اﻝﺸﻬﺎدة‬

It is indeed disturbing that the embassies of the Arabs or the Arab Gulf
states put behind Halal certificates their stamped declaring the
authenticity of the seals on the certificate without incurring any
responsibility for the content of the certificate.
‫ﺸﻬﺎدة ذﺒﺢ إﺴﻼﻤﻲ وﻋﻠﻰ ظﻬرﻫﺎ ﺨﺘم ﺴﻔﺎرة‬
‫ﻋرﺒﻴﺔ أو إﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ ﺘﺸﻬد ﺒﺼﺤﺔ اﻝﺨﺘم‬
‫اﻝﻤوﺠد ﻋﻠﻰ اﻝﺸﻬﺎدة وأن اﻝﺴﻔﺎرة ﻏﻴر‬
.‫ﻤﺴؤوﻝﺔ ﻋن ﻤﺤﺘوﻴﺎت ﺘﻠك اﻝﺸﻬﺎدة‬

‫وﺨﺘم اﻝﺴﻔﺎرة ﻫﻨﺎ ﻻ ﻴﻌﻨﻲ ﺒﺄن اﻝﻠﺤوم‬

‫اﻝﻤﺸﻤوﻝﺔ ﺒﺸﻬﺎدة اﻝذﺒﺢ اﻹﺴﻼﻤﻲ ﻨﺎﺘﺠﺔ ﻤن‬
‫ﻤواﺸﻲ أو دواﺠن ذﺒﺤت ﺤﺴب اﻝﺸرﻴﻌﺔ‬
‫اﻹﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ‬
The seal of an Arab
Embassy or of an Islamic
country is on the back of
Halal slaughtering
certificate witnessing the
authenticity of seal on the
certificate with a statement
that said: the embassy is
not responsible for the
contents of that certificate.

In conclusion, the embassy

here does not mean that
the meat covered by a
certificate is Halal
Another example: in the absence of attention to Halal ‫ ﻓﻲ ﻋدم وﺠود اﻫﺘﻤﺎم ﺒﺎﻝﺤﻼل‬:‫ﻤﺜﺎل آﺨر‬

‫ ﻴﻠزم‬،‫وﺠود ﻗرار إداري ﻓﻲ ﺒﻌض دول ﻤﺠﻠس اﻝﺘﻌﺎون ﻝدول اﻝﺨﻠﻴﺠﻲ اﻝﻌرﺒﻴﺔ‬

.‫ﺤﻼل‬
‫ ﻝﻤﺎذا؟‬.... ‫وﻗد ﺘﻜون ﺘﻠك اﻝﻌﺒﺎرات واﻝﺸﻬﺎدات ﻤﻀﻠﻠﺔ‬
The existence of an administrative decision in some countries of the Cooperation Council for
Gulf Arab states stating: it is necessary that importer put the word “Halal" on the packaging of
meat products and the words "beef" or "fish" on the packaging of products containing gelatin,
of course with a certificate from the issuing company from the country of origin!! So as to
allow entry of these products to this country in the Gulf and these statements are taken to be
Halal.
These statements and testimony may be misleading.... Why?
 ‫ﻷ ﻨﻪ ﻓﻲ ﻤﻌظم ﻫذﻩ اﻝﺤﺎﻻت وﻓﻲ ﺤﺎﻻت ﻤﺸﺎﺒﻬﺔ أﺨرى ﻝم‬
‫ﺘﺨﻀﻊ ﺘﻠك اﻝﻌﺒﺎرات واﻝﺸﻬﺎدات ﻝﻠﺘﺤﻘق ﻤن ﻗﺒل طرف ﺜﺎﻝث‬
Because in most of these cases and in other similar cases these
statements and certificates have not been verification by a third party

‫ﺠﻬﺔ إﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ ﻤﻌﺘﻤدة‬

Some manufacturers of famous chocolate brands in the world focus on writing
out the source of some of the components as of vegetable origin, which is good,
but this claim also needs to be confirmed by a third party.

‫وﻝﻜن ﻤﺎ ﻫﻲ اﻝﻤﻜوﻨﺎت اﻷﺨرى اﻝﺨﻔﻴﺔ واﻝﺘﻲ ﺴﻤﺢ ﻗﺎﻨون ﺒﻠد‬

!‫ واﻝﻜﺤول‬،‫أﺼل ﺤﻴواﻨﻲ‬
But what about the other hidden components, that is allowed by law to
be added and not be written by the country of origin such as gelatin,
other food additives of animal origin, and alcohol!
‫ﻫل ﺘﻌﻠم أن ﻋﺼﻴر اﻝﺒرﺘﻘﺎل ﻴﺼﻔﻰ ﻓﻲ ﺒﻌض ﻤﺼﺎﻨﻊ اﻝﻌﺎﻝم ﻓﻲ‬

.‫ﻴﻜﺘب ﻫذا اﻝﻤﻜون اﻝﺨﻔﻲ ﻋﻠﻰ ﻤﻠﺼق اﻝﻌﺒوة‬
Did you know that orange juice is filtered in some factories in the world
in the countries of the West by animal gelatin (bovine, or pig), but does
not write this hidden component on the food label.

‫ﺜم ﺒﻌد ذﻝك ﺘﺴﺘﻐرب ﻝﻤﺎذا ﻴﻜﺘب ﻋﻠﻰ ﻋﺼﻴر اﻝﺒرﺘﻘﺎل ﻜﻠﻤﺔ‬

‫ﺤﻼل‬
And then you may be surprised why do they writes the word Halal on
orange juice
‫ أن اﻝﻤﻨﺘﺞ ﺨﺎﻝﻲ ﻤن اﻝدﻫون‬:‫وﻋﻨدﻤﺎ ﻴﻜﺘب اﻹدﻋﺎء اﻝﺘﺎﻝﻲ‬

.‫اﻹدﻋﺎء إﻝﻰ ﺠﻬﺔ إﺴﻼﻤﻴﺔ ﻤﻌﺘﻤدة ﺘؤﻜدﻩ‬
And when the following allegation is written: the product is free of animal fats
does not necessarily mean that the product is Halal, because it may also
contain undeclared hidden forbidden components. The allegation also need a
third part (Accredited Muslim body to confirm it).
‫ ﻻ‬%100 ‫وﻜﻠﻤﺔ ﻜوﺸر ﻋﻠﻰ وﺠﺒﺎت اﻝطﻴران أو وﺠﺒﺔ اﻝﻨﺒﺎﺘﻴﻴن‬

The word kosher or 100% vegetarian on meals on flights is
not enough to say that it is Halal.

.‫اﻝﻜوﺸر واﻝﻨﺒﺎﺘﻴﻴن‬
Because there is a kosher wine, a vegetarians wine, and
there is also a kosher pig gelatin that may enter vegetarians
and kosher diets.

Pig = Porcine

And the phrase: slaughtered by hand, and fed with 100%
Pure Vegetable feed is not enough.

.‫ﻷن اﻝذﺒﺢ ﺒﺎﻝﻴد ﻻ ﻴﻨﻔﻲ ﻋدم اﻝﺼﻌق ﻗﺒل اﻝذﺒﺢ‬

Because slaughtering by hand does not negate stunning
before slaughter.

In some cases, Halal services is being offered by a group

Muslims.

Certificate of Islamic
slaughter certificate Qadiani
 .‫واﻝﻤﻨﺘﺠﺎت اﻝﻤﺼﻨوﻋﺔ ﻓﻲ ﺒﻠد إﺴﻼﻤﻲ ﻝﻴﺴت ﺒﺎﻝﻀرورة ﺤﻼل‬

For example: the meat that is coming from Australia to
make sausage or hamburger in the Gulf country it is
allowed to write on the product label: Made in that Gulf
country and not in Australia and it is taken by the
consumer that the slaughter is done by the Gulf country,
while the meat comes from slaughtered and stunned

conquest of Mecca he said: "Allah and His Messenger have forbidden the
sale of alcohol, and dead, pork and idols. " It was said, O Messenger of
Allah, what do you think of fat of dead animals (i.e. of eaten meat), they
applied to the ships, and varnishing the hides, and used as a source of

There is no compatibility between means of stunning before or
after slaughter or the engineering design of factories or
slaughterhouses in the Western countries with the
requirements of Islamic law of food manufacturing or
slaughtering and this is due to two reasons:
 .‫( ﺠﻬل ﺘﻠك اﻝﻤﻨﺸﺂت ﺒﻤﻌﺎﻴﻴر اﻝﺤﻼل‬1

Some may argue and say that as long as experiments shown that stunned chicken at only high
frequencies return back to their life after one minute, it is sufficient to say that they have a stable life?
We say: Haven’t we Muslims been ordered that we should fast in the month of Ramadan when we see
the Crescent and to break our fast from Ramadan when we see it? Despite the fact that science can
prove that the emergence of Crescent. However, we were ordered to see it via our vision. This is by
virtue the same, we can applies the same to slaughter of stunned birds at high frequencies that science
proves that they will return back to normal breathing and moves. So, it is important that we see signs of
life like breathing and disturbance prior to slaughter, God knows the best.

days is in the search for the dispute as a pretext for taking easiest solution, then
they say: the existence of dispute among the Muslim Ummah is mercy.

For some exporting countries, the call for an Islamic center

Stunning speeds up the lines of slaughter, and this is also an economic side,
doubling the number of slaughtering birds.

And do not forget that stunning is a prerequisite for automated slaughter, so
that bird surrender itself to the mechanical knife, the two methods are the most
economical in slaughter.
 Welfare During Stunning and Slaughter of Poultry

MOHAN RAJ1
Division of Food Animal Science, University of Bristol, Langford BS40 5DU, United Kingdom

ABSTRACT This paper describes research on the electrical stunning of poultry and the problems of achieving an
effective humane stun with water bath stunners. The welfare and meat quality advantages of using gas mixtures to
stun and kill birds are then described. The evidence strongly suggests that chickens and turkeys can be killed very
humanely using either 90% argon in air or a mixture of 30% carbon dioxide and 60% argon in air.
(Key words: electrical stunning, gas stunning, slaughter, welfare)

Cardiac Arrest ‫توقف القلب‬

Inducing cardiac arrest at the point of electrical stunning has welfare advantages
(but is not a prerequisite) in chickens, because a delay between the end of
stunning and neck cutting and the efficiency of neck cutting become less important.
If cardiac arrest is induced at stunning, it results in cessation of the supply of
oxygenated blood to the brain. This effect would certainly eliminate the potential
problem of resumption of consciousness. When a 50 Hz AC with sinusoidal wave
form is used, the current necessary to induce cardiac arrest in 99% of chickens is
148 mA per bird (Gregory and Wotton,1987). More recent research into the
electrophysiology of chickens also shows that a current of greater than 120 mA is
required to induce cardiac arrest and also abolish SEP following stunning in the
majority of birds (Gregory and Wotton, 1990a)

objectification of pain and consciousness during conventional (captive bolt stunning)
and religiously mandated (“ritual cutting”) slaughter procedures for sheep and
calves. Deutsche Tierärztliche Wochenschrift 1978 Feb 5;85(2):62-6. (English
translation by Sahib Mustaqim Bleher) (German)
http://www.halalfocus.com/artman2/uploads/1/Hanover_report_1978.pdf
Between 1974 and 1978 Schulze and his colleagues carried out a study at the School of
Veterinary Medicine, Hannover University in Germany. The study: ‘Attempts to Objectify Pain and
Consciousness in Conventional (captive bolt pistol stunning) and Ritual (knife) Methods of
Slaughtering Sheep and Calves’[4] is reported on islamic websites[5][6] to have concluded that
"the Islamic way of slaughtering is the most humane method of slaughter and that captive bolt
stunning, practiced in the West, causes severe pain to the animal".
‫الصعق الذي يمارسه الغرب يتسبب في ألم شديد للحيوان‬
Indeed, according to the study "these experiments on sheep and calves carried out within a clinic
show that during a ritual slaughter, carried out according to the state of the art using hydraulically
operated tilting equipment and a ritual cut, pain and suffering to the extent as has since long
been generally associated in public with this kind of slaughter cannot be registered." However,
the study notes that the "objective results presented for the captive bolt application in sheep (..)
rather (..) indicates that the captive bolt device used is suspect" and that these initial "scientific
findings and the results presented are only a very first contribution" and that they "need to be
followed as a high priority by further investigations in the continuation of the scientific clarification
of the issues of loss of pain and consciousness during slaughter of this kind with and without
stunning using the same experimental approach with a representative number of grown cows of
various breeds."

Sara Shields, Ph.D.,* and Mohan Raj, Ph.D.†
Pre-Stun Electric Shocks
It is well-documented in the scientific and trade literature
that some birds inadvertently experience painful electric
shocks prior to being stunned in the electrified water
bath. 26,27,28,29,30 This can happen when a bird’s
leading wing makes contact with the water before the
head or if wing-flapping occurs at the entrance to the
stunner.

Controlled Atmosphere Killing (CAK), a promising alternative

technology, uses gas mixtures to render birds unconscious. CAK
systems that stun birds while they are still in their transport
crates avoid many of the welfare problems associated with the
live-hang process and electrical water-bath stunning.

Western countries with the requirements of Islamic law of food manufacturing or slaughtering
4. The reality of Islamic fatwas put by mufti (Muslim scholars) that come out with generalizations,
constraints and assumptions and conditions
5. Fabricated allegations
