No ka meaʻai e Halal, ʻo ka mea nāna e mālama i ka meaʻai a me kāna hoʻomākaukau ʻana he Muslim. E hilinaʻi wale ka Muslim i kahi hale ʻaina meaʻai Halal i mālama ʻia e kahi chef Muslim.
Ua ʻōlelo hou aku ʻo Chef Manit: “Ke manaʻo nei au inā loaʻa ka meaʻai Halal i kahi hōkele, he ala maikaʻi ia e huki ai i nā malihini; ʻoi aku ka nui o nā malihini Muslim. I kekahi manawa e koho lākou i kahi hōkele no ka mea hāʻawi ia i ka meaʻai Halal no lākou.
