Gelatin is Haraam if it comes from non Zabiha meat.

Islamic Law Regarding Gelatine

If the source of Gelatine is derived from a Halaal source then its usage is permissible, whilst if the source is Haraam or Mashqook [doubtful] then it will be considered Haraam. The hide matrix or gelatine protein is basically a piece of skin, which is hydrollised, washed, melted and extracted, purified, evaporated, sterilised, chilled, dried and granulated for further shelf life and easy use. Alkaline treatment tends to remove amide groups present on certain amino acid residues on the collagen protein chains resulting in a lowering of the isoelectric point and consequently an alteration not a transformation of the chemical and physical properties of the protein occurs. Despite the above method of changing a raw product into gelatine under tremendous chemical pressure still retains much of its chemical equation. The collagen triple helix structure is lost during this procedure but the resultant Gelatine product retains the original coil structure. The aspect of Tabdeel-e-Mahiyyat does not take place.

*shrug* Alhumdullah, thank you for your point of view, but I will not be so pretentious to dictate to others if non-Zabiha meat is halal, haramoobobi or anything of the sort.

That's not pretentious. Non-zabihah meat is non-halal meat.

This is the view of the Scholars of the 4 madhaabs.

Non Zabiha meat is Haraam unless eaten in dire need (ie starvation)

Non-Muslims' Meat Claims & Non-Zabiha Meat...*

Eating non-zabiha meat for a college student with limited options

Meat in the West

not to hijack yet another thread but..

to a lot of muslims non zabiha does not equal haraam. and you can find scholarly backing for it as well, so let's try to avoid calling something haraam when it has a difference of opinion.

I haven't shaved for 3 months when I took this pic. My beard is just creeping along very slowly, but mashallah it's finally visible on camera.







Also, I know my room is so messy it's basically a biohazard.


one more "also"; does the salwar kameez look a little big?
