The theory of Shariah Rulings in Halal Meat and Poultry Production

Alabi Lateef Zikrullah

International Journal of Management Sciences, 2014, vol. 3, issue 5, 351-369

Abstract: Halal meat and the industry in general are estimated to be worth overUS$600 billion, with the number of producers, certification bodies and consumers growing rapidly every year. Remarkably the demand for halal meats and other products has become a global challenge, not only among the Muslims, but even among the non-Muslims alike. The unique features of halal meat which emphasizes not only on certain rules of sharia, but also on various sensitive and best practices such as cleanliness and hygiene have symbolized the universal value of the product. Hence, the demand that has been established for such products has become a global phenomenal, especially in countries where Muslims are the majority. It should be noted that though these sensitivity and best practices in halal meat production and the management are very important, the understanding of sharia rulings in dealing with halal matters is of paramount importance. This study intends to explore various sharia rulings and principles which are necessary in the production and management of halal slaughtering and consumption of its meat around the world and Malaysia in particular.
