What is Halal Meat?
Halal is Arabic for permissible. Halal food is that which adheres to Islamic law, as defined in the Koran.
​
Halal slaughter has its origins in a respect for all life being sacred. The Islamic form of slaughtering animals or poultry, dhabiha, involves killing through a cut to the jugular vein, carotid artery and windpipe.
Animals must be alive and healthy at the time of slaughter and all blood is drained from the carcass. During the process, a Muslim will recite a dedication, know as tasmiya or shahada.
