    Cultural Competency: Halal Diet

    Definition: Some Muslims follow specific dietary guidelines that fit into their religious beliefs. The foods
    on the halal diet meet the regulations that are laid out by Islamic dietary law. These laws define
    permitted (halal) and prohibited (haram) foods as well as food preparation practices. If it cannot be
    determined if a food is halal or haram, that food, called “mashbooh”, is forbidden. Slaughtering must be
    completed by a Muslim familiar with Islamic slaughtering practices, in accordance with Islamic law.

    Notable foods common in North America that are considered unlawful on the halal diet include:
     Animal foods: pigs, boars, frogs, poisonous aquatic animals, blood
     Plant foods: hazardous plants except those where toxin can be destroyed during processing
     Beverages: alcohol
     Food Additives: derived from prohibited animal foods, plant foods, or alcohol
