Certifications

Certifications can occasionally help us recognize whether a food is suitable for consumption. However, it is necessary to understand the principles of the various certification bodies.

There are several types of certifications that will assist the Muslim consumer in finding suitable foods.

Suitable for vegetarians

This type of certification is more commonly found in Asia and Europe. It is becoming more common in North America now.

As further products are certified, we will add information concerning these certifications here.

Kosher

Jewish food laws resemble Islamic food laws very closely. We can use this similarity to our benefit to facilitate our search for suitable foods. There are however times when the principles of a given certifying body cast doubts into the suitability of the foods.

Check our Kosher certification page for further details.
