Muis: Muslims can eat cultivated meat if halal provisions met


Amid the global push for more sustainable food solutions, the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) has declared that cultivated meat is generally halal, and Muslims are allowed to consume it – provided all conditions are fulfilled.

The fatwa, issued on Feb 3, said cultivated meat can be considered halal if the cells are sourced from animals that Muslims are allowed to consume, and there is no mixing of non-halal components in the production process.
