    Study Notes

    Wajib (Obligatory)

    • Disobedience to Allah's command without a permissible excuse is immoral and considered a sin that will be judged and punished in the afterlife
    • Examples of wajib:
      • The 5 obligatory prayers
      • Fasting during the month of Ramadhan
      • Pilgrimage (hajj)
    • Muslims are obliged to consume halal food and avoid haram food
    • Sunnah refers to rulings that are purely recommended and advocated to be followed without prosecution for omission or non-adherence
    • Practicing sunnah matters will be beneficial to an individual and shall be rewarded by Allah
    • Omitting sunnah matters will not be considered a sin nor punishable
    • Examples of sunnah:
      • Reciting supplication (dua) before consuming food
      • Handling food or drink with the right hand

    Halal (Permissible)

    • Halal refers to actions that are neither forbidden nor recommended, and are religiously neutral
    • Halal can also be understood through the principle of Istishab (anything not expressly prohibited or considered abominable by the Islamic Shari'ah is permissible)
    • In relation to food and beverage, all things are permissible unless otherwise prohibited
    • The basis for this general ruling is a passage from the Quran: "It is He who had created for you all things that are on earth" (Quran, Surah Al-Baqarah:29)

    Makruh (Discouraged)

    • Makruh refers to acts that are disliked and offensive; abstaining from it is rewarding, but not haram
    • Examples of makruh:
      • Eating using the left hand
      • Blowing air while consuming hot food/beverage
      • Talking excessively during eating
      • Making bad remarks or insulting food/beverage
      • Eating food that produces a foul smell in the mouth, e.g. garlic

    Haram (Prohibited)

    • Haram refers to any act that is forbidden by Allah
    • Omissions of matters that are haram are praiseworthy and shall be rewarded by Allah
    • Haram can be divided into two categories:
      • Haram li zatihi (prohibited by itself)
      • Haram li ghairihi (prohibited due to others)
    • Haram li zatihi refers to something that by itself is prohibited, such as pork, alcoholic drinks, blood, carrion, halal animals not slaughtered according to Islamic Shari'ah
    • Haram li ghairihi refers to anything that was initially permissible but prohibited due to certain circumstances, such as food mixed with haram ingredients or slaughtered in the name of other than Allah

    Shariah and Halal Food

    • Shariah is the dynamic body of Islamic religious law
    • Food according to Codex Alimentarius is "any substance, whether processed, semi-processed or raw, which is intended for human consumption, and includes drink, chewing gum and any substances which has been used in the manufacturing, preparation or treatment of 'food' but does not include cosmetic or tobacco or substances used only as drugs"
    • Halal Food: JAKIM Perspective defines halal food as food permitted under the Shariah law and fulfills certain conditions, including:
      • does not consist of or contains any part of matter of an animal that is prohibited by Shariah law and fatwa for a Muslim to consume or that has not been slaughtered in accordance with Shariah law and fatwa
      • does not contain anything which is najs (impure) according to Shariah law and fatwa
      • is safe and not harmful
      • does not intoxicate according to Shariah Law and fatwa
      • does not contain any part of a human being or its yield which are not allowed by Shariah law and fatwa
      • is not poisonous or hazardous to health
      • has not been prepared, processed or manufactured using any instrument that is contaminated with najs (impurity) according to Shariah law and fatwa
      • has not in the course of preparing, processing or storing been in contact with mixed, or in close proximity to any food that fails to satisfy the above conditions
