Halal and Haram

[nobody]

In the name of Allah.

Assalomu Alaykum.


What Is Halal?

"Halal" is a Quranic Term, which means 'Lawful' or 'Permitted'. Sometimes it is translated as 'Acceptable' or 'Not forbidden'. Halal foods and drinks are permitted for consumption by Allah- the supreme lawgiver. In the Holy Quran, Allah commands Muslims and all of mankind to eat of the Halal things. Eating Halal is obligatory.

What Is Haram?

The opposite of 'Halal' is "Haram", which means 'Unlawful' or 'Prohibited". The other words used for Haram is 'Unacceptable' or 'Forbidden'. Haram foods and drinks are absolutely prohibited for consumption by Allah. Eating Haram is forbidden for every Muslim. If a Muslim consumes Haraam foods, he would be sinful.

What Is Mushbooh?

"Mushbooh" is an Arabic term which means 'doubtful' or 'suspected'. If one does not know the Halal or Haram status of a particular food or drink, such a food or drink is doubtful. A practicing Muslims prevents himself from consuming doubtful things.

The terms Halal and Haram will be used strictly to describe food products, meat products, cosmetics, personal care products, food ingredients, beverages and food contact materials. Which foods are Halal or which foods are Haram, is decided according to the Holy Quran and the Glorious Shari’ah (Islamic Law).Most diets and foods are considered to be Halaal unless Islamic Law specifically prohibits them.

The following products are definitely Halal:
1. Milk (from cows, sheeps, camels or goats).
2.Honey.
3.Fish.
4.Plants which are not intoxicant.
5.Fresh or naturally frozen vegetables.
6.Fresh or dried fruits.
7.Legumes like peanuts, cashew nuts, hazel nuts, walnuts, etc.
8.Grains such as wheat, rice, rye, barley, oat, etc.

Animals such as cows, sheep, goats, deer, moose, chickens, ducks, game birds, etc., are also Halal, but they must be Zabihah (slaughtered according to Islamic Rites) in order to be suitable for consumption. The procedure is as follows: the animal must be slaughtered by a Muslim by putting the animal down on the ground (or holding it if it is small) and slitting it's throat with a very sharp knife to make sure that the main blood vessels are cut. While cutting the throat of the animal without severing it, the person has to recite "Bismillah Allah-u-Akbar".

The following items have been categorically spelled out as being Haram:

1. Pig/Swine/Pork and its by-products.
2. Blood and blood by-products.
3. Carnivorous animals.
4. Reptiles and insects.
5. Halal animals which are not slaughtered according to the Islamic Law.
6. Animals killed in the name of anyone other than God.
7. The bodies of dead animals or dead before slaughtering.
8. Alcohol and intoxicants such as Wine, Ethyl Alcohol, and Spirits etc.

The above mentioned items are Haram and should be strictly avoided by all Muslims.

Foods containing ingredients in the following are example of Mushbooh:

1. Gelatin.
2. Enzymes.
3. Emulsifiers.
4. Lard.
5. Glycerol/glycerin etc.

Muslim should avoid such foods containing Mushbooh or questionable ingredients. Before consuming such items, we have to confirm the source of these ingredients.

Some Ayats from the Holy Qur'an:

O ye people! eat of what is on earth, lawful and good; and do not follow the footsteps of the Evil One, for he is to you an avowed enemy.

(AL BAQARAH, 2:168 )

Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah. that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form); that which is sacrificed on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, Allah is indeed Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

(AL-MAIDAH, 5:3)

They ask thee what is lawful to them (as food). Say: lawful unto you are (all) things good and pure.

(AL MA'IDAH, 5:4)

Eat of the things which Allah hath provided for you, lawful and good; but fear Allah, in whom ye believe.

(AL MA'IDAH, 5:88 )

So eat of the sustenance which Allah has provided for you, lawful and good; and be grateful for the favors of Allah, if it is He Whom ye serve.

(AL NAHL,16:114)

The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them.

(AL MA'IDAH, 5:5)

JazakAllohu hairan.

An Important Discussion On Zahbia and People of the books (Christian or Jews).

Question: Whether the Zahbia of people of the books (Christian or Jews) and places where the food is severed and sold by them (i.e meat), What does the Shariah requirements of its legality and reliability, especially where there is doubt or when Muslims are not certain if the name of Allah' was mentioned at the time of slaughter.

Answer by Mufti Taqi Usmani
Darul Uloom, Karachi, Pakistan

Concerning this issue? It is my opinion that the Zabiha performed by the a person among the people of the book is not the only condition other necessary conditions are:

At time of slaughter the name of Allah' must be mentioned
Jaguar vein must be cut similar to Islamic Shariah.
These above conditions are equally applies to a Muslim as well as to people of the books. The main reasons that Islam permits the Zabiha of people of the book and forbidden the meats of Mushrikin (those who associate with Allah i.e. Christian) at that time the people of the books used to respect the requirements of Zabiha that were imposed by the Islamic Shariah.

What Reliable Ulema say about the people of the books?

Source: 'The Noble Quran Tafser-e- Usmani' by Allama Shabbir Ahmed Uthmani 1885-1949 English translation by Maulana Muhammad Ashfaq Ahmad Ulema of Deoaband (India).

Allah may have granted this concession because The Christians and Jews, however, believe; though wrongly, the Divine Revelation and Prophet hood, and they are apt for further reformation.

Exceptions:The Idolaters, Polytheist, (such as Hindu, Buddhist etc.) are not granted this concession. Perhaps, because their hearts are more defiled by atheism or polytheism and are not acceptable in a Muslim Society. If a Muslim woman (or man) becomes Christian of Jew denouncing Islam, she or he is not lawful for marriage because she/he in an apostate.
Similarly, the food of an apostate is not lawful though, he may sacrifice the animal pronouncing the Name of Allah' thousand times over it.
For example, the girls of the Qadyanis (Ahymedia sect) who are declared apostates by the Muslims are not lawful for marriage, nor their sacrifice is lawful to eat.
Similarly, the women of other religions as Hinduism and Buddhism are not lawful; neither the sacrifice of the Hindus and Bodhist is lawful. Allah' does not recognize any other religion (except the Religion of the Jews and Christians) as a Heavenly Religion. The Religion of the Jews and Christian is heavenly though they have much distorted their religions, and though Islam abrogates their religions, because abrogation does not discard their heavenly character.


Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi's decree, Ulema of Deoband (India)
source: 'Fatawa Rahimiyah' by Mufti Abur Rahim Lajpuri

"But those who are called Christians nowadays are mostly Christian as a community; religiously they are simply 'agnostics' (One who believes that there can be no proof of the existence of God but does not deny the possibility that God exists) and materialists; (those who believe that physical well-being and worldly possessions constitute the greatest good and highest value in life, another word denies Hereafter), to such this order of propriety of marriage is not applicable."
(Indad F vol. ii, p170; Taf. BQ vol. iii, sect 9).


Allaamah Shabbir Ahmed Uthmani who is one of the best commentators of the Quran has observed as follows:

May it be remembered that the Christian contemporaries (modernist) with us are generally 'Christian in name only'. Among them are many, those neither believes in any revealed Book or in any religion or in the existence of Allah. The term scripture (People of Books) cannot be applied to them.
Hence, the religious prescription (hukm)in respect of their slaughtered animal and women will not be like that means for the scripture (People of Books)
May it also be noted that the lawfulness of the thing means that it itself there in non reason for its being unlawful but if external influences and circumstances are such that one has to commit several other unlawful acts to derive benefit from it nay, even if there is possibility of one's committing infidelity (sin), then the deriving of benefit from such thing shall not be permitted.
(Fawaid-e-Surat al-Maida, p.171 sect 6)


It is stated in the 'Tafsir-e- Haqqani' (Vol. IV, p 11):

"that the agnostics of Europe of the period are not Christians at all. It is stated in the Fatawa Dar al-Ulum that those people who are called Christians nowadays are mostly agnostics, they do not believe in any religion and not even convinced of the existence of God.
Though, in the census reports these people are stated to be Christians according to our religious regulation they cannot be termed scripturaries. (vols. i-ii, p. 160, Qadim)
One thing is notable, those Christians and Jews who don't believe in their own Religion are not real Christian and Jews. There are either Atheists or Irreligious. So, they are like Idolaters and Polytheists. Their women are not lawful; their sacrifice is not lawful."

HALAAL AND HARAAM

1. It is not permissible to eat animals and birds that hunt their prey or those animals and birds that eat filthy things. For example, it is haraam to eat lions, wolves, jackals, cats, dogs, monkeys, hawks, falcons, vultures, etc. Those animals that do not fall under this category are halaal. For example, it is halaal to eat parrots, mynahs, doves, sparrows, quails, wild ducks, pigeons, antelopes, buck, ducks, rabbits, etc.

2. It is not permissible to eat badgers, lizards, tortoises, turtles, wasps, mules, donkeys, etc. It is not permissible to eat the meat of a female ass nor is it permissible to drink her milk. It is permissible to eat the meat of horses, but preferable to abstain from it. Among the sea animals, only fish are permissible. All other animals of the sea are haraam.

3. It is permissible to eat fish and locusts without slaughtering them. Apart from these two animals, it is not permissible to eat any animal that has not been slaughtered in the Islamic way. It is haraam to eat an animal that has died a natural death.

4. It is not be permissible to eat a fish if it dies naturally and begins to float on the surface of the water.

5. It is permissible to eat the tripe of halaal animals. It is not haraam to do so, nor makruh.


6. If a few small ants or worms die in anything, it will not be permissible to eat that thing without first removing those dead ants or worms. If one or two ants or worms go down the throat, one will get the sin of eating a dead animal. Some people eat wild figs together with the little worms that are found inside thinking that by eating these wild figs they will not be afflicted by evil eyes or evil gazes. This is haraam. They will get the sin of eating a dead animal.

7. It is not permissible to purchase and eat meat that is sold by a non-Muslim even if he claims that he had it slaughtered by a Muslim. However, if the Muslim who slaughtered it remains in the presence of the non-Muslim all the time until all the meat is sold, it will be permissible to consume such meat. Alternatively, the person who slaughtered the meat could call another Muslim to keep watch over it until all the meat is sold. At no time should any Muslim absent himself from that meat.

8. A fowl or chicken that eats a lot of filthy things should be encaged for three days and only after that should it be slaughtered and eaten. It is makruh to eat such a fowl without encaging it for three days.

Assalomu Alaykum.

INTOXICANTS

1. All alcoholic drinks are haraam and impure. The same rule applies to toddy (a drink that is made by adding hot water and sugar to whisky, rum, or brandy). It is not permissible to consume these alcoholic drinks even as a source of medication. In fact, it is not even permissible to apply medicines that contain alcohol.

2. Apart from alcohol, it is permissible to consume all other intoxicants on the condition that they are consumed only for medication. Furthermore, only that amount will be permissible which does not intoxicate the person. If a person consumes an amount that intoxicates him, it will become haraam upon him. It is also permissible to apply medicines that contain such intoxicants. Such intoxicants are: opium, nutmeg, saffron, etc.

3. It is permissible to consume toddy and alcohol that has turned into vinegar.

4. Some women give opium to their children in an effort to stop them crying and putting them off to sleep. This is haraam.


GOLD AND SILVER UTENSILS

It is not permissible to eat or drink from gold and silver utensils. In fact, it is not permissible to for any purpose items that are made of gold or silver. For example, it is not permissible to:

(a) eat and drink from gold or silver utensils,

(b) clean the teeth with a toothpick made of gold or silver,

(c) sprinkle rose water with a gold or silver utensil which has been made for such a purpose,

(d) to keep surmah in a gold or silver utensil which has been made for such a purpose,

(e) to keep betel-leaves in a container made of gold or silver,

(f) apply oil that is kept in a gold or silver utensil,

(g) lie or sleep on a bed whose legs are made of gold or silver,

(h) look in a mirror that is framed in gold or silver.

All these things are haraam. If a mirror has been framed in this way solely for decoration, it will be permissible to display such a mirror. However, at no time should one look into such a mirror. In short, it is not permissible to use anything that is made of gold or silver.

Another interesting article.

LOST ITEMS THAT ARE FOUND

1. If a person finds an item on the road, pathway or a public gathering, it is haraam for him to pick it up and keep it for himself. Similarly, if he invites some guests to his house for a meal or some other reason and one of the guests leaves some of his personal possessions behind, it is haraam for him to pick it up and keep it for himself. If he decides to pick it up, he should do so with the intention of looking for it's owner and returning it.

2. If a person finds something and does not pick it up, there will be no sin on him. However, if he finds it at a place where there is the fear that if he does not pick it up, someone else will pick it up and will not return it to it's owner, then it becomes wajib on this person to pick it up and return it to it's owner.

3. Once a person finds a lost item and picks it up, it becomes his responsibility to search for it's owner and to return it to him. If he picks it up and replaces it from where he found it or takes it away with him without looking for it's owner, he will be committing a sin. This is irrespective of whether he found it at a safe place where he did not fear it getting lost or he found it at an unsafe place. That is, irrespective of whether it was wajib upon him to pick it up or not. The same rule will apply in both cases. That is, once he picks it up, it becomes wajib upon him to search for it's owner. It is not permissible for him to replace it at the place where he found it.


4. When a person finds an article, he must search for it's owner and announce the lost item in all the public places that are frequented by men and women. If a woman cannot go to a gathering in which there are men, she should send her husband or another male to go and announce the item that has been found. The person should clearly announce that he has found a particular item and that the owner should come and claim it. However, he should not mention exactly what he has found so that a cheat does not come and claim it falsely. Instead, he should merely give a vague description of it. For example, he must say that he has found some jewellery, clothing or a wallet. Once the claimant comes and gives a clear description of that jewellery, clothing or wallet, it should be given to him.

5. If the person searches extensively for the owner or advertises it properly and still does not find it's owner to such an extent that he has no hope of finding it's owner, he should give that item in charity. If the person is poor himself, he can keep it for his personal use. If the owner comes and claims his item after the person had given it in charity, he (i.e. the owner) can demand the value of the lost item as compensation. If he sanctions giving it in charity, he will receive the reward for that.

6. If a domesticated pigeon or parrot falls in one's yard or house, it will be wajib on the person to search for it's owner. It is haraam to keep it for himself.

7. If mangoes, guavas or any other fruit is lying fallen in someone's yard or orchard, it is haraam to pick it up and eat it. However, if an item is of so little value that no one really searches for it, nor does anyone feel offended if it is taken and eaten, it will be permissible to pick up such an item and keep it for oneself. For example, if a person finds some fruit or a handful of dholl, there will be no harm in picking up such items.

8. If buried treasure is found in a house or in a jungle, the same rules as those mentioned above will apply. That is, the person cannot keep it for himself. He will have to search for it's owner. If the owner is not found, it will have to be given in charity. If he himself is poor, he can keep it for himself.

MISCELLANEOUS MASA'IL

1. It is mustahab to remove the hair of the pubic region and the armpits once a week. If one does not remove these hairs weekly, one should at least remove them every fortnight. If one cannot even do this, one should remove them before forty days. If a person leaves these hairs for more than forty days, he will be sinning.

2. It is makruh for women to call their husbands and parents by name as this shows disrespect. However, certain occasions may demand that they be called by name. In such circumstances it will be permissible to call both the husband and parents by name. Under all conditions and in all circumstances, one should always be mindful of being respectful to one's husband and parents.

3. It is not permissible to burn any living creature, e.g. it is not permissible to smoke bees in order to get rid of them. It is also not permissible to catch bugs, flies, mosquitoes, etc. and to throw them into a fire. However, if there is no other way of getting rid of them, it will be permissible to do so, e.g. at times it is difficult to get rid of bees. In such a case, it will be permissible to smoke them. It will also be permissible to get rid of bed-bugs by pouring boiling water on the bed if there is no other way of getting rid of them.

4. It is not permissible to take bets, e.g. a person says: "If you eat a full kilo of sweets, I will give you R1. But if you cannot do that, you will have to give me R1." In other words, it is not permissible to take two-sided bets. However, one-sided bets are permissible.


5. When two persons are talking in privacy, one should not go and sit near them. It is a major sin to try and listen to their conversation. It is mentioned in a Hadith that on the day of judgement, boiling lead will be poured into the ears of the person who tries to listen to the private conversation of others despite their disapproval. We learn from this that it is a major sin to spy on the bride and bride groom or to try and listen to their private conversation.

6. It is not permissible for the wife to discuss or announce the private affairs and conversations that transpired between herself and her husband. It is mentioned in a Hadith that Allah Ta'ala becomes extremely angry when a person discusses or mentions all that transpired between him and his wife.

7. It is not permissible to joke with a person to such an extent that he feels insulted or angered by the joke. One should only joke to the extent that the other person laughs and is amused.

8. It is not permissible to wish for death or to curse oneself when afflicted by any problem or calamity.

9. It is not permissible to play dice games, cards, etc. If these are played for money, they will be regarded as gambling and will therefore be absolutely haraam.

10. Once boys reach the age of ten, they should not be allowed to sleep or lie down next to their sisters, brothers or mothers. Once girls reach the age of ten, they should not be allowed to sleep or lie down next to their brothers and fathers. However, the son can sleep next to his father and the daughter can sleep next to her mother.


11. When a person sneezes, he should say Alhamdolillah. It will be wajib on the person who hears him saying Alhamdolillah to say Yarhamu kumullah. If the latter person does not say this, he will be sinful. Upon hearing this reply, the person who sneezed should say Yaghfirullahu lanaa wa lakum. However, it is not wajib, but mustahab on the person who sneezed to give this reply.

12. After sneezing, a person said Alhamdolillah which was heard by several persons. It will not be wajib on all of them to give a reply to it. If one of them gives a reply, it will be sufficient. However, if none of them gives a reply, all will be sinful.

13. If a person sneezes continuously, it will be wajib to say Yarhamu kumullah up to three times and not more.

14. When a person mentions the name of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, hears it or reads it, it becomes wajib upon him to send salutations to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. The person will be sinning if he does not do so. But if his name is mentioned several times, it will not be wajib to recite the durood each time. It will be sufficient to recite it once. But if a person moves from his place and takes his name or hears it again, it will be wajib to recite the durood again.


15. It is not permissible to shave the head of a child in such a way that a certain portion is entirely bald and another portion is left long. Either shave the entire head bald or leave all the hair unshaven.

16. It is not permissible for women to apply perfumes or any other fragrant creams, lotions, etc. in such a way that ghayr mahrams get the smell of the fragrance.

17. It is not permissible to give clothing which is not permissible to wear, e.g. it is not permissible for the husband to purchase clothing that is not permissible for his wife to wear. Similarly, it is not permissible for a tailor or dressmaker to sew clothing which is not permissible for Muslims to wear.

18. It is not permissible to read short stories, novels, novels based on love and beauty which are of a fictitious nature. It is also not permissible to look at books and magazines that have pictures of men and women in shameless clothing or no clothing at all. Books containing love poems should also be abstained from. Books and magazines of this sort should not even be purchased. If they are found in the possession of one's children, they should be burnt.

19. The custom of making salaam, shaking hands, embracing each other is also sunnah for women. Women should adopt these Islamic customs among themselves.

20. If a person is a guest at someone's house, he should not give any food or anything else to a beggar from his host's house without the permission of the latter.

There are some ahadiths about halal and haram.

235.The halal is that which Allah has made lawful in His Book and haram is that which He has forbidden, and that concerning which He is silent He has permitted as a favour to you.
(Reported in Al-Hakim, classified as sahih (sound), and quoted by al-Bazzar).(Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al halal wal haram fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).

236.I have been sent with what is straight and easy.
(Ahmad).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al halal wal haram fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).

237.Allah has prescribed certain obligations for you, so do not neglect them; He has defined certain limits, so do not transgress them; He has prohibited certain things, so do not do them; and He has kept silent concerning other things out of mercy for you and not because of forgetfulness, so do not ask questions concerning them.
(Daraqutni).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al-halal wal haram fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).

238.Any innovation in our matter (worship) which is not part of it must be rejected.
(Bukhari, Muslim).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al-halal wal haram fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).

239.If anyone amasses wealth through haram means and then gives charity from it, there is no regard for him and the burden of sins remains.
(Ibn Khazimah, Ibn Hibban, Hakim).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al Halal Wal Haram Fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).

240.A group of people will make people's intoxications halal by giving it other names.
(Ahmad).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al halal wal haram fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).

241.A hadith qudsi (NOTE 23):
They prohibited to people what I had made lawful for I created people upright (hunafah). Then the evil ones came to them and led them astray from their religion and commanded them to associate with Me that for which I had sent down any authority.
(Muslim).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al halal wal haram fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).

242.A time will come when people will devour usury, calling it "trade."
(Bukhari, Muslim).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al halal wal haram fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).

243.Avoid three abominable acts (that is, the one who does them is cursed by Allah and by the people): defecating in streams, defecating on roadways, and defecating in shaded places.
(Abu Dawud, Ibn Majah and Hakim, and classified as sahih by Baihaqi).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al halal wal haram fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).

244.Actions will be judged by intentions, and everyone will be recompensed according to what he intended.
(Bukhari).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al halal wal haram fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).

245.Its water (the sea's) is pure and its dead are halal.
(Ahmad).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al Halal Wal Haram Fil Islam) by. Yusuf Qaradawi).

246.By Allah, if Fatimah, the daughter of Muhammad, were to steal, I would have her hand cut off.
(Bukhari).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al Halal Wal Haram Fil Islam) by. Yusuf Qaradawi).

247.If a person earns property through haram means and gives charity, it will not be accepted (by Allah): if he spends it there will be no blessing on it; and if he leaves it behind (at his death) it will be his provision in the Fire. Indeed Allah Ta'ala does not obliterate one bad deed by another bad deed, but He does cancel out a bad deed by a good deed. An unclean thing does not wipe away another unclean thing.
(Ahmad).
(The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam (arb: Al halal wal haram fil Islam) by. Yusuf Al Qaradawi).
