Salam Alaikum,
Quite a good list you have here. I must say am impressed.
But I think snakes are reptiles(though not sure) and many or even the majority of the schools of thoughts see them as part of the halal food. Just dunno you can check that out. Also there are crocodiles, I think they too are Halal. But please do check it out.
Thanks
khalil...... are you kanuri?
i have an aunt that's from maiduguri, and she's a kanuri, her bro told me once that in maiduguri they eat snakes and crocodiles, he even told me the best part of the crocodile was its tail, plus the meat of a snake tastes like an oily fish.
mmmmmm, i have had it on my mind to taste croc and snake meat for a long time, but i have met many people that think they are haram.
I hope, you'd be able to clear it out for me since i follow the Imam Malik sect (like many northerners) but i currently am in an area where there are only and only Imam Hanafi folowers, and there are quite alot of things that we dont agree on.
Thanks Khalil.
It is very informative. Howeva, I do not have knwoledge on the kinds of reptiles that Islam does not consider Haram for consumption so correct me if am wrong. Islam says 'avoid eating anything injurious to health'. Right or wrong? Some snakes are poisions than others, though they do not cause internal harm, but they still harm u both externally & internally. They sting u & their venom goes in2 ur body destroyin cells and blocking blood vein. Perhaps, they mayb consumable but shouldnt we consider the injurious to health and for consumption? On d other hand, I dnt think crocodiles shud b consumed by muslims though am not really sure of my statement but my reason for saying so is, even though it lives in water, howeva 60% of his livings is on dry land. And if Crocodile can eat human being alive or dead & any kind of animal dead corpse, shouldnt we not eat it? How can we consume such a thing? Doesnt it carry the same weight like eating Porks? Because the reason that we are not allowed to eat pork is because "we" consider it not good for the body. It eats all kinds of dirt including dead decayed corpses.
:D Dis place is lookin nice, Ummita is doing such a gud job already.
I have a question, Blood is haraam rite? I always wonder...
u know sumtimes when u make bbq, or grill chicken some parts
especially da joints, don't usually get cooked, it's always lookin red-ish.
some pple say it's oky 2 eat it, but i get disgusted easily.
These pple dat eat it, is it haraam?
I heard once that all hatched creatures(those hatched from eggs) are halal.That means snakes and crocs are halal.Atlhough i dont have a concrete proof to back me up.

nyce post y'all got in here....its reely in4mative plz keep d facts flowing...but uhm....snakes,blood,...no no!
The Haram food are only found in the Quran and Sunnah of the Prophet. Whatever is not mentioned there is halal as far as Islam is concerned. However some Madhahibs have forbidden certain food while others permit it. A muslim may decide to avoid food forbidden by his madhhab but at the same time must know that eating such food by another muslim or even himself is not an act of sin..as no one can forbid what Allah and his Prophet make Halal or vice varsa. So Ummi, eating reptiles whether poisonous or not is permitted in Islam...now to eat or to reject the meat depends on the muslim in question. Just like the Prophet was presented with lizard ( :D Arabs do eat lizards..funny isnt it?) in Volume 7, Book 65, Number 312 of Sahih al Bukhari: He withdrew his hand. Khalid asked, "Is it unlawful to eat?" the Prophet said, "No, but it is not found in the land of my people and that is why I do not like eating it." So Khalid started eating (it) while Allah's Apostle was looking at him. Anther example here is the flesh of the horse..which is not allowed in Maliki madhhab though is permitted by others.
I will present the verses of the Holy Book listing Haram food...Any food that is not mentioned there is considered to be halal except if it is forbidden in Sunnah. an of a food in that category is the flesh of a Donkey (not Zebra). although is not mentioned in the Quran, the Prophet forbids his followers from eating the flesh of Donkey..in Sahih al Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 234: Narrated Anas: ..."Then we found some donkeys which we (killed and) cooked: The announcer of the Prophet announced: "Allah and His Apostle forbid you to eat donkey's meat." So, all the pots including their contents were turned upside down".
I will also try and see that I presented Hadith from Sahihal Bukhari that talked about Haram and Halal Food.
Other foods are classified as Makhruh, neither Halal nor Haram. Just as the Prophet said .."Haram is clear and Halal is clear..and in between there are some issues mutashabiha" Example you may give the flesh of Lizards..since we want to emulate the Prophet and he didnt take it..then it is advisable for a muslim not to take it..EVEN THOUGH EATING IS NOT HARAM. ( :D Hausas do give it to young ones as a medication for cough).
another example amy include enzymes, glycerin and other foods of doubtfull origin.
From the Quran:
O ye people! eat of what is on earth, lawful and good; and do not follow the footsteps of the Evil One, for he is to you an avowed enemy.
(AL BAQARAH, 2:168)
Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah. that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form); that which is sacrificed on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, Allah is indeed Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
(AL-MAIDAH, 5:3)
They ask thee what is lawful to them (as food). Say: lawful unto you are (all) things good and pure.
(AL MA'IDAH, 5:4)
Eat of the things which Allah hath provided for you, lawful and good; but fear Allah, in whom ye believe.
(AL MA'IDAH, 5: 88 )
The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them.
(AL MA'IDAH, 5:5)
So eat of the sustenance which Allah has provided for you, lawful and good; and be grateful for the favors of Allah, if it is He Whom ye serve.
(AL NAHL,16:114)
Other verses not mention are does not contained what is not mention in the second verse above. Allah knows best.
In the Hadith..Donkey flesh is forbidden (though horse and zebra meat are lawful). This is reflected in the Hadith of Anas I quoted above. Another Hadith confirming the prohibiton of Donkey also forbids the flesh of some animals. the hadith is in Sunan Ab? D?w?d and Sunan al-Tirmidh? with a good line of transmission to al-Miqd?d B. Ma`id Yakrib that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: ?It is unlawful for you to eat the flesh of donkeys and carnivores possessing fangs.? The cat and dog are included in this prohibition, because they are carnivores possessing fangs.
It is related in Sahih Muslim that Ibn `Abb?s said: ?The Prophet (peace be upon him) forbade eating the flesh of fanged predatory animals and birds with talons.? This would include the dog, the cat, the bear and other similar carnivores as well as birds of prey like eagles, hawks, and falcons.
The above Hadith are both sound. Should we consider these two hadith as weak as some people are insinuating because they include cats and some birds..then we have to accept that Dogs are not Haram either.
Allah knows best. I stand to be corrected so that we learn together.
May Allah guide us and feed us with what is Halal in his sight.

It's funny though I like my steak rere/medium done.
Blood is Haram and the logic behind has been discovered recently. Blood contains a large percentage of urea which is really harmful to the body, hence Islam forbids it. Likewise the wisdom of prohibiting the eating of pork is attributed to the pig not having the jugular vein which will permit 90 percent of its blood to be drained after slaughtering and hence contains large amt of urea which harms human beigns. thogh Allah knows better

HELLO TWINKLE I'M REALLY MOVED BY YOUR POST, BUT THAT ABOVE, IS IT MAGNESIUM STEARATE OR WHAT? IF IT'S MAGNESIUM STEARATE THEN IT'S MUCH TOO LATE 'COS IT IS BEING USED EXTENSIBLY AS PHARMACEUTICAL EXCIPIENTS.
Lard is pig fat. Therefore haram.
Anything that lives in water or half lives in water (frogs for example) are halaal. So even man eating sharks are halal!!
I dont think whey is haram, and I fail to see how vegetable shortening vanilla can be haram as well. But we live and learn. More explanation on what makes these two haram required.
i got a halal food brochure today and it said that whey depends on the
kind of microbial enzyme used in da process. Apparently some of these
proteins might come from animals (slaughtered) and since they dont
usually state the enzymes on the nutritional facts, it's better to avoid it.
Allahu wa'alam
Ok.... :idea: Now I got it. I have always been under the impression that whey naturally produces itself u c, as when milk ferments for example without the addition of enzymes to catalyze the fermentation.....
Cheese nko? i luv that thing men.
To the best of my knowledge cheese is halal.
Amma kai ma ban da abun ka idan kana son abu ai ba a saurin tambaya ko halal ko haram :P

For Cheese lovers , U can make yr own cheese in a simple way. It will taste more like feta cheese than cheddar cheese.
Just preboil some milk. (u dont have to boil it). let it cool to warm, then add some sour yoghurt and leave to settle for a day. The milk solutes will precipitate to the bottom and leave the liquid whey. Decant the liquid, and pour the remaining solidified milk content into a muslin bag or muslin cloth. (Dankwali da ake tatar koko da shi will do just as fine). Hang the muslin cloth to drain out the rest of the liquid and so that only the solid is left. You can hang the muslin cloth in the fridge and put a bowl under and drain the drips into it. On the other hand u can leave it out in the air.
Empty the cheesy product into a clean bowl. Add some olive oil and salt to taste and stir into a smooth cream. Pour a drizzle of olive oil to cover the cheese and there u are.
Delicious with toasted bread! Bon apetite!

Thanks for the recipe.
The milk,fresh milk(irin direct daga saniya or irin farm fresh din nan) or evaporated?
Well I dont know the difference between 'direct daga saniya' or 'farm fresh'. Farm fresh would be anyi diluting dinta ko? An dan yi ha'inci? Unless its really just white washed water with very little milk solids the the farm fresh would do excellently. The direct from the saniya obviously is the best, cos u will get real creamy cheese. Evaporated milk is also ok I guess.. never tried it with that. It would probably endup tasting like that brand of cheese called Philadelphia cheese.... love that verrrrrrrrrrrrry yummmy. Very fattening!!!
On the other hand, I wouldnt recommend evaporated milk lol.
Kai what about saying Bismillah and eat none halal meat :-\
You know when you really get hungry, pop into a shop and that is the only thing you can find.
Hmm.. not allowed. In so far as u can find an alternative food not necessarily meat. But I know what u mean exactly. Allah Ya Kyauta dai. I think most of us do that, especially when u are in a country that doesnt have many halal outlets like UK
what about settling for fish as far as you are down at the alliens territory?
salam,
I have a ques the chicken parts we eat from fast food joints how do we know they were slaughtered not electrocuted first
LOL Mufi,why would they be electrocuted first?
That is waste of electricity ai.
