J
& K , June 29th , 2016: Haji Shakeel
Qureshi , India's renowned entrepreneur, exporter and socialist
supported a campaign to create awareness amongst the people about the
“Halal” certification.
International
Standards are backbone of our society , ensuring the safety and quality of
products and services, facilitating international trade and improving the
environment in which we live in.
Labelling
prevent deception and help consumers make welfare-maximizing choices. A
consumer can get the most only if he/ she has accurate information about the
foods under consideration. Accordingly, the goal of label information is to
help consumers identify the food products that best match their preferences,
thus helping consumers spend wisely.
Mr Haji Shakeel Qureshi said, “ We all are quite familiar with word “Halal” but our knowledge of this word is very shallow..Very few of us are aware of real sense of this word. Most of us relate Halal to Halal Meat but It is just one small aspect of Halal .

Halal
is an Arabic word which means permitted, lawful with respect to which no
restriction exists. The word Halal has a broader meaning which actually means
whatever one does should comply with ethical means. Whatever one earns , sells
, consumes or trade should be done with honesty , clear thoughts and always
abstain from dishonesty and cheating.
Mr.
Haji Shakeel Qureshi further added ,”There
is very less awareness that " Halal" is an international
certification of standard of assurance of quality and purity which is
globally accepted. In Gulf countries” Halal” mark is mandatory for all
export products and is a benchmark for quality .Halal Certification opens up
opportunity to tap global food market of about 2 billion people (Middle East ,
Asia Pacific, EU, USA, Central Asia ).
India is a fast growing economy ,awareness about
Halal quality standards can give opportunity to many upcoming entrepreneurs to
export their products abroad .
Never the less with growing export from our country we
should also make Halal Mark mandatory on our products so that we are able to
export our FMCG segment internationally with ease.
He emphasised that,” Today knowingly or unknowingly we are becoming slaves of materialistic world where we compromise with our ethics. Halal sets a direction for our life . The real meaning of this term should be made understood to all . Leading a pious life and following Halal in our day to day life will not only help us to become a good human being but also help in upliftment of society as a whole.
