Abstract

Islam requires the consumption of meat that has been sourced from an animal that has been slaughtered, processed, and delivered according to the Islamic requirements. The lawful status of meat is not tied to the slaughtering only. The processes of plucking feathers, removing entrails, etc., all have to be taken into consideration before the meat can be deemed lawful (halāl) and wholesome (tayyab). The nominal process in Islam to avoid impurity and contamination of the meat is to remove the entrails before immersing the chicken in hot water to soften the feathers for plucking. However, the current industrial practice switches this process. The mechanical plants are designed to immerse the chicken in hot water and pluck the feathers before gutting the chicken. This has given rise to inquiries and doubts to the Muslim consumers whether the meat of such birds are lawful or not. In order to provide an Islamic response to this issue, this paper is looking into, first the scientific and industrial perspective of the scalding and evisceration processes. Second, the paper is evaluating the scientific-industrial practice in the light of Islamic jurisprudence (Fiqh).

Abstract

This study aims to explore and establish the relationship, if any, between halalan toyyiban and organic foods, aiming to elucidate the value proposition of halalan-toyyiban foods. Three common characteristics have been identified: quality, safety, and healthiness, which are representative of both halalan-toyyiban and organic foods. This discovery implies a close relationship between these two food classifications. Understanding the distinct criteria used to classify foods as halalan toyyiban or organic, and identifying their shared characteristics, can aid consumers in making informed food choices. Furthermore, the findings of this study could potentially benefit Malaysia in promoting halalan toyyiban and organic food products in the global market by leveraging these commonalities. It's important to note that this study is exploratory and the first of its kind, suggesting the need for further research to deepen understanding and knowledge on this subject. In conclusion, this research seeks to contribute to the discourse on halalan toyyiban and organic foods, exploring synergies between them and paving the way for future studies to expand upon these findings.
