➕ Suggest a product
What makes a good suggestion
- A clear product name and brand, plus the barcode if you can read it.
- The full ingredient list. The checker above reads it live.
- For certified claims: the certifier name and number so a reviewer can look it up.
- An evidence link such as a photo of the pack or the certifier’s page.
- Be honest about doubt. “Doubtful” is a valid, useful tag.
Suggestions go to a review queue. Nothing appears publicly until a reviewer approves it, and the reviewer may change the final tag and add a note. Your contact details are never shown publicly.
📖 How tags work
The four tags
- ✔ Halal certified A recognised certifier has issued a certificate that covers this product, and a reviewer checked the certifier name and number. This is the strongest tag.
- Halal (community) The ingredient list shows nothing prohibited or doubtful, but there is no certificate. It is a good sign, not proof, because we cannot audit the factory, the slaughter method or cross-contamination.
- Doubtful (mushbooh) Something in the product may be haram depending on its source, for example gelatine, E471, animal rennet or alcohol-based flavour. Contact the maker or choose a certified alternative.
- Haram The product contains a clearly prohibited ingredient such as pork derivatives, alcohol as a drink, or blood.
How the live checker thinks
- It reads your text for pork and Filipino pork dishes, alcohol, blood, gelatine, rennet, carmine, shellac, animal fats, doubtful emulsifiers and about 60 E-codes.
- It understands claims such as “pork-free” or “no alcohol” and treats them as unverified claims, not proof.
- Meat is always doubtful until a halal certifier is named, because the slaughter method cannot be seen on the label.
- It guesses the product type (meat, dairy, bakery, sweets, cosmetics…) and tells you what to ask next.
- For short product names it also searches the database below.
How a suggestion is reviewed
- 1. Submitted. Anyone can suggest a tag after giving their contact details. It stays private in the review queue.
- 2. Auto-scan. The ingredient list is compared with our halal / haram knowledge base so the reviewer sees flagged items.
- 3. Verification. For “certified”, the reviewer checks the certifier’s directory. For others, they read the ingredients and evidence.
- 4. Decision. The reviewer approves with a final tag (it can differ from your suggestion) and a public note, or rejects it.
Limits you should know
- Recipes change. A product tagged today can change supplier tomorrow, so always read the current pack.
- Scholars differ on some items (carmine, transformed gelatine, trace alcohol). We show the difference, we do not issue fatwas.
- Only a certificate from a recognised body proves halal status. See the certification guide for how to verify a logo.
