Halal is a kind and healthy choice for everyone-not just for muslims.| 2:168 O mankind, eat from whatever is on earth [that is] lawful and good and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy. O People, eat from the meat, vegetables and fruits of the earth which are lawful and good, and not harmful.
PROFESSOR DR. AZMAN AB RAHMAN
Director of Institute of Fatwa and Halal, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (IFFAH, USIM)
SDGs and Maqasid al-Shariah: Reframing the Global Halal Ecosystem for Ethical and Sustainable Impact | Quran has mentioned in the Chapter 21:107 that “We have not sent you but as a Mercy to the worlds.”
