What To Know About Halal Rations

By Leanne Goff


In the Islamic law halal rations represent the amount of food that believers are allowed to eat. It mostly focuses on poultry and meat products. This law also dictates how processing of meat ought to be done. It lists down a variety of lawful foods that are prescribed in the diet of Islam according to guidelines.

The Quran is the base of all these guidelines. Muslims for example are not permitted to eat pork or pig products, they are also not allowed to consume meat from cattle or animals that were slaughtered after they had died from other causes. Blood consumption is illegal in the eyes of the law. All animals must be respected and subjected to minimal pain when being slaughtered.

Believers are asked to treat all animals with respect whether they are alive or dead. Cutting of the jugular which is located on the neck is the best method that Islam deems lawful in animal slaughtering. All the meat shops that follow these regulations are given a certification that enables believers to only purchase products from them.

Having a restriction on the amount of food to consume does not mean that Muslims are subjected to insufficient food; the food must be enough to sustain a normal person. The correct ration is then packed into safe clean bags. The package in most cases comes with spices, napkins and utensils.

A Ration can be consumed directly from their packets without the need to cook them. There also exists the option to re-cook the meal either in pans or by using a microwave. If in a hurry, an individual can dip the whole meal in hot water without ripping the package. It is packaged in such a way that it can withstand huge levels of heat without breaking.

Store owners and food manufacturing companies need to ensure that the ration is properly labeled according to their nutritional composition. Consumers on the other hand ought to check the contents of each pack so that they eat a meal that has a nutritional balance. To be on the safe side and in line with Islamic laws, the buyers must ascertain that all contents on the packs are genuine and complement the true ingredients of the meal.

After deciding on the type of food to eat the buyer must make sure to check the shelf life of the good. These foods are meant to last a minimum of three months and a maximum of up to ten months. Foods that are past their shelf lives can be poisonous if consumed by humans.

Halal rations now a days are being processed by a lot of companies as they see it as an emerging product in the market. The best market for these products is the military because most armies offer their diverse members just one uniform meal; this can infringe on the rights of many especially Muslims. However, halal foods have made sure that Muslims in the army still follow the Islamic guidelines and at the same time get good and proper nutrition while in the line of duty.
