Question

ASAK,

Is SANHA, South African National Halaal Authority, a reputable and reliable organization? Do they have Ulema guidance and support? Are they affiliated with any of the South African Muftis/Ulema from your Darul Iftaa or any other Darul Iftaa?

Any advice will be appreciated!

JZK!

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

It has been stated in the Sanha website that “The JU is a founder member of SANHA and has ceded the activity of Halaal certification and monitoring to SANHA since inception.”

The Jamiat ul Ulama board consists of Ulama/ Muftis.

You may refer to the Sanha website for details.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

Ask AskImam

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
