RAPID development in science and technology has left a great impact on the food processing industry. From the scientific and religious perspectives on food consumption, the halal concept is crucial because it includes other elements such as hygiene, ethics, values and food safety. Furthermore, halal does not only concern Muslims, but non-Muslims as well.
The halal concept is used widely in all aspects of life including food products, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, health supplements and food ingredients. In Islam, many things have been classified as halal or haram.
