what makes a food halal
Halal is often used in reference to foods and drinks, i.e. foods that are permissible for Muslims to eat or drink under Islamic ShariÊ»ah (law).The criteria specifies both what foods are allowed, and how the food must be prepared.The foods addressed are mostly types of meat and animal tissue. The most common example of non-halal (or haraam) food is pork (pig meat).he food must come from a supplier that uses halal practices. Specifically, the slaughter must be performed by a Muslim, who must precede the slaughter by invoking the name of Allah, most commonly by saying  Bismillah  (In the name of God) and then three times  Allahu akbar  (God is the greatest).
