What is a ‘halal’ certificate?
According to Islam, ‘halal’ means valid ! Previously the ‘halal’ certificate was limited to meat only, but now that religious fanatics want to build their independent economy, many things like housing, medicine, cosmetics, etc. are given ‘halal’ certificates. In short, it is a certificate to the effect that ‘a certain facility or thing is certified according to Islam’. Globally, various international lobbying groups of religious fanatics are pressuring establishments to get these certificates. Large establishments are also falling victim to this as pressure is being exerted on Muslim consumers to say that halal is mandatory. Some Islamic organisations are working for this conspiracy. The certificate they have approved is called a ‘halal’ certificate. This is a plot hatched by fanatics through a ‘halal’ certificate to build a parallel Islamic economy in the country and undermine the prevailing economy.
