As is known around the world many
organizations are certified halal. Standards
in a clear structure in Turkey, although
many organizations have volunteered to
provide halal certification. ISO
Certification of organizations in general
who wants to provide halal certification and
inspection standards for a perfectly normal,
but not possible to give a structure halal
certification and totally geared to make
money a non-Islamic state is valid. Today,
even the standard document which
unascertained or inadequate standards in
Thailand, countries like New Zealand is even
a certificate. TSE in Turkey 's work has
turned out about 3 years to reach a
conclusion could not get the company or
receive any of the halal certificate gives
the impression that the current level. Halal
standards are required to have four subjects
in the title. These conditions are not in
place will not be possible to talk about
halal standards. These conditions; Islamic
requirements, legal requirements (health),
are the documentation and audit requirements.
In Islamic terms there are two main points
of the first of which non-Muslim business
owner and employees of businesses that offer
halal certificate and the second is whether
or not to be halal and the haram of the
product that is to determine what happened.
This issue from country to country and sect
to sect varies. Snails, frogs, etc. entries.
products constantly being discussed today.
These products then I will talk about
identifying and must be approved by the
council. The first point is the most basic
questions, this document will be taken only
by Muslims Do? Is the question. Here are the
fine details. For example, a Jewish
businessman and you make the trade sector to
a Muslim halal certificate do is to receive?
A farmer and fruit-producing non-Muslim
would like to receive this document is what
will happen? Muslim workers as eligible to
receive this document runs to? This kind of
question it is possible to diversify.
Reason for these questions so I can repeat
the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 2
Is an item. The Council of Ministers
Decision No. 7217 and May 27, 1949 date was
published in the Official Gazette. In this
article, "Everyone, race, color, sex,
language, religion, political or other
opinion, national or social origin, property,
birth or any other indiscriminately will be
announced in the Declaration of all the
rights and liberties of all may benefit. You
can also get independent, or autonomous or
under the guardianship or other non-sovereign
countries to restrict citizens get connected,
about a person, the state or nationals in
the country's political, legal, or in terms
of international status will not be any
discrimination. "Figure is. Citizen of the
Republic of Turkey as a Muslim in this
section and in any case be seen as the halal
certificate must be able to receive. Islamic
perspective in a situation is not suitable
TSE or any organization can not issue a
halal certificate. The easiest way to solve
this case, the TSE is to stay away from
these standards and is led to the formation
of an independent organization. This should
include an independent organization and
within different countries, a council should
be established. Adequacy of these councils
do not have any Islamic organizations do not
provide halal certification issues, and this
council will not be halal and haram products
products list by choosing a general
yayınlamalı and food until the last stage of
the consumption process is required to
publish standards. These phases in heat,
coldness, storage, cutting, sales, pricing,
etc.. standards should be set to benefit
from global standards. TSE will not be
suffering under this burden.
Halal certification organization will
receive, the second should comply with the
legal requirements. legal requirements,
health (hygiene) to include rules in a broad
subject and Food Act, Food Act and the
Veterinary Services Act, etc.. contains laws.
In terms of unhealthy products sold to the
Islamic one is not and should not be
produced. Want to buy halal certification
organizations survive they must know and
apply the laws of the country. Organizations
meet the legal requirements because they can
not halal food certification laws not be
able to receive a vast Islamic literature,
and in essence create conditions in food
availability in the basic amount. The
simplest example of application is drip
irrigation. Drip irrigation studies
conducted with the support of state less
water will be used in the waste water will
be more accurate words as well as crop
productivity and product quality will be
increased. All the laws of the state Halal
standards. An important issue in legal terms
is the suitability of the infrastructure.
Infrastructure requirements and supervision
of compliance maintained by government
agencies. These institutions by the poor
conditions in manufacturing organizations,
people can harm their production environment
already from the Islamic perspective is
inappropriate. Even kite, which securities,
commercial morality in a weak institutions
can not receive halal certification. Unfair
to charge employees who do not do insurance,
unhealthy work environments are not
certified halal any kind of injustice
because it does not fit the Islamic.
The third requirement is the documentation.
Calibration requirements in documentation
management, training, processes, customer
satisfaction, the adequacy of search
products, internal audit, product validation,
storage, critical control points, corrective
and preventive actions and policies of the
Islamic quality of preparation and should be
announced to all employees. Islamic
organizations will join workers in an
environment of quality policy should be
written and must be announced. One of the
most important thing is cleaning in the
documentation. Organizations planning to do
cleaning and implement. This practice should
be documented. Organizations for the
production of the products they supply from
non-Islamic adequacy or organization can not
receive from. These purchases must be
documented in the halal standard, and must
demonstrate proficiency. Halal certification
from manufacturers and organizations where
the products they buy as well as the
economic contribution is provided with halal
certification of product quality increases.
For the increase of product quality should
be noted that a robust audit is needed.
Last requirement is the control. Control
system before the halal certificate and
should be implemented after obtaining the
document. Document consists of two phases
must be pre-audits. The first stage is the
pre-audit stage, after preliminary audit
organizations should be given the
opportunity to correct deficiencies. Lack of
non-entities that control must be able to
receive the document. Lack of institutions
that control of the second control in the
remaining excuse is missing and only the
audit costs should be paid to organizations
that benefit must be returned document. The
document to be charged could not get his
money would not be appropriate from the
Islamic perspective. These types of
organizations and lack of at least six
months working on the application must be
unable to. Control processes and
documentation must be pre-set time.
Documents such as ISO documents should be 3
years. Document must be for 1 year. Each
year after the new document should take
control. Each year a number of codes can be
placed no such document. Get 2344 next year,
pointing to number 1 is placed on this
figure is exceeded, the control may be
increased each year. This increase in the
organization's halal standard indicator will
be how many years that interest in the
application and the application will
increase loyalty. Over the years, will be
able to come into a corporate advertising.
These recommendations should focus on a
particular issue then the government
auctions and corporate purchases of the
product whether you want this document do
not provide. It should not be in such
matters by state agencies in this regard may
take independent decisions must bring. There
are two sides of this issue. On the one hand
the Muslim citizens of Islamic competence to
offer the product on the other side in the
coming years that can be created or replaced
the Christian standard of Kosher standard,
non-Christian or Jewish products will not be
called to take the place of an expression
situation.
To summarize briefly, if necessary, the
halal certification requirements have become
today. Turkey on this issue should lead to
the system of state institutions in this
regard but not publish the standard.
Standard by an independent team should be
conducted. TSE should receive only the
system's accreditation, audit and
certification should by performing.
