Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Halal vs. Kosher
“Halal” is what is permissible or lawful in traditional Islamic law, such as food and drinks, just like “Kosher” for the Jew. Muslims are obliged to follow this dietary law. What can be eaten and how the food is processed or prepared are stated in Quran, which is distinct from ordinary foods sold or served for other people.
It is estimated that there are nearly 1.8 billion Muslims in the world now. Since the fertility rate of Muslims is higher than any other religion or the world average, the total of Muslim populations in the middle of the century is predicted to surpass one of Christians, currently the world most populous religion. This also means that over 20% of the food consumed in 2050 is going to be Halal. Now you may be interested in what sorts of food Halal is.
Enjoy reading this comparative chart for Halal and Kosher.
