Halal is an Arabic word meaning "lawful" or "permissible". The opposite of Halal is haram, which means "unlawful" or "prohibited". The words Halal and Haram are the usual terms used in the Quara to designate the categories of lawful or allowed and unlawful or forbidden.

The Halal Certificate is a document that guarantees that the products and services at the Muslim population meet the requirements of the Islamic law. To Muslim (about 26% of the world's population), all products they use must have Halal Certification.
