Gelatine - Halaal or Not
Gelatine is a substance widely used in the food industry and can also be manufactured using the hides of cattle. The local company manufacturing gelatine uses this process and is certified as Halaal by a Cape based Halaal certifying body. The National Independent Halaal Trust was asked for their view on the subject.

Halaal & Haraam
The world in which we are living today, is so controlled by our own desires and passions, that proper values and religious considerations, hardly play any importance in the lifestyle we have adopted for ourselves. In our eating, drinking, dressing, and in our trade and commercial ventures, we are totally ignorant of the beautiful guidelines that Islam has prescribed for us. In our relentless efforts to amass material wealth, we are unashamedly sacrificing the criteria of truth, honesty, fair play and lawfulness.

IHI Alliance has formed a strategic partnership with the Islamic Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ICCI) under the chairmanship of Sheikh Saleh Abdullah Kamel, founder of the Dallah Al Baraka Group.
