All about Halal Food Certification
1.
The Growth of Islam in South Africa.
Number wise it is not expected to be so great; 1,5-2
% of the South African Population? (better statistics is not available).
But during the last decade:
o Many more mosques all over the country
o Many churches were changed to mosques
Where does the Money come from to build this
mosques and spread Islam?
o
A lot
came out of our pockets! WHAT?
WHAT CAN AND MUST WE AS CHRISTIANS DO?

Halal Marking on Consumer Products:
Please read all the
arguments and make your responsible conclusion.
1) there are only 1,5-2 % Muslims in SA but
their religious beliefs dominate our whole economy. They are welcome to do what
they believe in their own household but not force it on us all.
2) Question: Will
Muslims buy stuff with "Christian Friendly" stickers and a Cross
stamp on the food? Why must Christians be forced to buy "Islam
marked" stuff as there are mostly non alternatives. Everything is halal marked
these days.
3) And there are
enough proof that the reason behind Halal is more an Economic domination and
Political (jihad) reason than a Religious conviction.
4) Halal is in
practice an extra unnecessary consumer-tax that everybody has to pay. WHY?
5) Further it's a fact
that the Halal-program brings a substantial income in the pockets of Muslim
halal-organisations, money that is not donated for Christian welfare, but only
for Muslim expansion.
3. South African Facebook Page:
Say no to Halal Food in SA: Why?
We the majority people of SA strongly object to the infringement
of our contitutional rights to freedom of religion, freedom of association and
freedom of choice by being forced to fund the less than 2 percent of the people
in SA with halal certification on 90 percent of our food -

S.A. Imam says "Halal Certification is a
Fiasco"
“HALAL CERTIFICATES ARE BIDDAH – a new innovation – Worse
than sins!
So it is not surprising that out of 57 OIC member countries
less than five have Halal Certification Bodies!
Biddah - Concept of Bid'ah in islam Salman Quayyam
“Biddah” is Haram and considered as heresy, it is an
innovation in Islam, it is the invention, creation or addition of any religious
matter which was not (originally) found in Islam. Therefore, Islam warns
against it and invalidates any religious deed which does not originate from the
Quran and the Sunnah. Muhammad says in this respect: "He who innovates
something that is not in agreement with our matter (religion), will have it
rejected."
Boycott
Halal in SA : MUSLIMS
BETTER REJECT HALAL CERTIFICATES TOO!

More Islam voices that condemn Halal:
This Imam is not alone in condemning the system. On the
Official Website of the Office of his Eminence Al-Sayyid Ali Al-Husseini
Al-Sistani” it states:
“The writing [on the package] has no value at all. If the
producer is a Muslim or it was produced in a place where Muslims are in the
majority and it is not known that the producer is a non-Muslim, then it is
permissible to eat it. But if the producer is a non-Muslim or it was produced
in a place where Muslims are not in the majority and it is not known that the
producer is Muslim, then it is not permissible to eat it.”
When asked if fish is ok to eat this is the answer on this
website,
“There is no problem in buying it from Muslims or
non-Muslims; as there is no problem in eating it, if they are satisfied that
the fish was caught by the method mentioned above and that it belongs to the
category of scale fish.”
No halal certificate necessary!
"What does Allah have to tell us about the use of his
words in order to earn money?
"Of course this marketing phenomenon is not a new
custom amongst Muslims though I suspect that its current use is somewhat
innovative. Allah said that using His words for financial gain is not permitted
– yes that is right, misusing the term halal to make money is in fact not halal
at all but haram!”
So are we really racist or bigots for opposing halal
certification?
According to these Muslims we are completely justified in
our concerns.
