Eating Halal is obligatory on every Muslim.

Haram: Haram is a Quranic term which means prohibited or unlawful. Haramfoods and drinks are absolutely prohibited by Allah. Eating Haram is forbiddenfor every Muslim.

Mushbooh: Mushbooh is an Arabic term which means suspected. If one doesnot know the Halal or Harm status of a particular food or drink, such a foodor drink is doubtful. A practicing Muslims prevents himself from consumingdoubtful things.

Prophet(s) Muhammad is reported to have said:

"Halal is clear and Haram is clear; in between these two are certain thingsthat are suspected. Many people may not know whether those items are Halalor Haram. Whosoever leaves them, he is innocent towards his religion and hisconscience. He is, therefore, safe.Anyone who gets involved in any of thesesuspected items, he may fall into the unlawful and the prohibited. This case issimilar to the one who wished to raise his animals too close to a restrictedarea, so that the animals may step into that area. Indeed for every landlordthere is a restricted area. Indeed the restriction of Allah are the Haram."
