WE are aware that Muslims are instructed by ALLAH, Subhanahu wa ta'ala, to eat only Halal foods and when in doubt to avoid its consumption. This incentive dates back to the time of Prophet Adam, alaihis salaam, when he was clearly instructed not to eat the fruits of the forbidden tree (haram). Prophet Adam, alaihis salaam, succumbed to the nafs (temptations) and ate the fruit for which he was chastised and punished by ALLAH. |
