Question
Do I Have to Investigate Medicine and Food Ingredients Living in a Majority Muslim Secular Country?
Answer
- basic research will suffice by asking the local scholars and righteous Muslims or emailing and calling a company for the basic inquiry.
- Stay away from any companies that use machine slaughtering.
- If the food is beef, lamb, or the like, just look for a basic certification that it is halal, especially in a Muslim-majority company
