Halal ke tidak ni?

[M&N]

M&N terkejut bila terbaca artikel dari Berita Harian tempoh hari (lupa bila date nya) yg mengatakan bahawa ada ada gerai di negara jiran kita (M'sia) yg menjual daging babi salai dengan bungkusannya dicap Halal    

Mungkin ada komplot gelap yg menjual cap halal itu kepada penggerai bukan Islam dgn bertujuan utk melariskan barangan mereka.

So be careful when you're out there....

Another controversial matter: from TNP yesterday:

BEER. Whisky. Brandy.

Not what you would expect to see advertised at a Muslim coffee shop in Toa Payoh.

It even displays a logo to indicate that what is sold there is halal (allowed to be consumed under Islamic law).

The coffee shop manager maintains that his beer and liquor-flavoured cappuccinos are 'non-alcoholic'.

But are they?

Did you know these could have alcohol?

THE Heineken International website says 'non-alcoholic beer' is not totally free of alcohol.

According to The Wine Guide website, a product that contains less than half of 1 per cent of alcohol can be labelled non-alcoholic.

But if they are 'non-alcoholic', how can they be wines?

That's because, industry experts say, they are made with grapes using traditional methods.

As with alcoholic wines, the grapes are fermented for three weeks and then aged in oak barrels for at least 18 months.

But just before bottling, the alcohol content is removed through a patented method of cold filtration to retain the flavour and the aroma of the wine.

Wines containing small traces of alcohol have been served at important functions all over the world attended by Muslim leaders.

Research has shown that even fresh juice can contain traces of alcohol, occurring naturally because of fermentation.

Muslims must also beware that traces of alcohol are found in pear juice (0.18 per cent), some orange juice (0.06 per cent), a few soft drinks (0.05 per cent) and ginseng extracts (0.5 per cent).

Indeed, even the mouthwash Listerine contains a high level of alcohol.

What have you to say abt this article?

In 1 of the countries I visited, I went to the supermarket to buy soya sauce (kicap). There was one particular brand of soya sauce where there was a warning label written as : All soya sauce goes through a process of fermentation. So like all other brands, ours produces alcohol.

Up till now I'm stuck wondering if soya sauce is halal becos its such a staple food among malays.
