Question

i read your post to question 1585. you say "Okay as per ingredient" and "not verified by JUM" means literally the same thing and implies "should not be considered as a green light from our side" and "leaving it to the consumer's discretion".

so mr mufti says okay and the public should not consider it as a green light?

somewhere else you said "Based on information at our disposal, these CHEESE are considered Halal as per ingredients..."

Is "Halal as per ingredients" also not a "green light" and you left us "to the consumer's discretion"?

NO mr mufti when you say "okay" or "halal as per ingredient" you ARE giving a green light because that's the meaning in simple english.

One might learn a lot from your articles. For example the recent article "The real honour -
When faced with some form of opposition or argument, a person falls under three categories :
1. Honourable
2. Lowly
3. Shameful"

If your answer was not 2 and 3, it was also not 1. Come give an honourable answer! Otherwise your articles would be just words...

Answer

The terms are different but the meaning is same according to us. By these terms we only wish to bring to the knowledge of the public the information we have at our disposal.

If it was taken by you as a green light, let us make it clear now that it is not so.

Let the public decide by themselves in the light of information provided by us to them.

As for honorable, shameful etc. we are ready to learn it with you. Please give us an appointment.
