Halal Food

What does halal mean to us- the non muslim population?

Does Halal = No pork?

It is not so simple. That's our misconception.

Today I had a lesson. And I learnt how shallow I am.

Halal food means food which is permissible by the Islamic law, from the farm till the mouth of consumer.

Hence the process how the animal is being kept,the prayer, how it is slaughtered, the processing of the carcass, the machine and cooking utensil that we use to cook the meat, the additive that we mix with the food, how the food is presented, contact of the food with halal material till it is put into the mouth of the consumer.

Therefore, we should bear in mind that if the animals are not slaughtered by Muslim with prayers using the halal way, as well as the utensil and ingredient that we use , we might not be able to serve our Malays and Muslim friends with the food that we prepare.

Another option?

Vegetarian food, I guess that 's the only food that we can share with our Muslim friend.
