The rapid growth of the Halal food industry in the United States, valued at over 20 billion dollars, has raised concerns among Muslim consumers regarding the authenticity of Halal meat. Reports of fraudulent practices, such as machine slaughter and stunning animals, have caused a decline in consumer confidence. The lack of federal oversight to enforce anti-fraud laws has further exacerbated the issue, leaving many questioning the integrity of Halal food products available in the market.

"O mankind, eat from whatever is on earth [that is] lawful (Halal) and good (Tayyib) and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy." [Surat Al-Baqarah Aya 168] At Halal-N-Tayyib, we firmly believe that consuming authentic Halal meat, which is of high quality and sourced from pasture-raised animals, is not only beneficial for the environment, animal welfare, and farmers, but also for ourselves. We consider the consumption of Tayyib food to be a religious duty, as it is intricately connected to one's deen, or faith. In Islam, the treatment of animals, their upbringing, health, welfare, and the rights they hold over humans are all significant aspects that should be taken into account. Additionally, the method of slaughter is of utmost importance. While there is often a strong emphasis on the Halal aspect, the concept of Tayyib, which is deeply rooted in Islamic principles, is equally vital.  |
