Does Burger King Have A Halal Certificate From JAKIM?

People always ask if Burger King is halal. We’re tired of answering that question, so we went to Halal Malaysia Directory to check if they have JAKIM Halal certification.

And the answer is:

Please refer to the screenshot from the JAKIM portal below:

If the answer is Yes, it means:

• Cosmo Restaurants Sdn Bhd, a company, has obtained halal certification from JAKIM
• However, perhaps some of the premises may not have gotten the certification yet
• This is because obtaining halal certification for each premise takes time

If the answer is No, there are a few possibilities:

• Maybe Cosmo Restaurants Sdn Bhd hasn’t applied for the halal certification yet
• Possibly Cosmo Restaurants Sdn Bhd has applied it, but it hasn’t been approved
• Perhaps Cosmo Restaurants Sdn Bhd is deliberately not applying
• Lastly, maybe we made a mistake and didn’t find the right keyword
• If we’re wrong, please correct us

Why Is The JAKIM Halal Certificate For Burger King Important?

If a company like Little Cravings Sdn Bhd receives a JAKIM halal certificate, it has met the requirements and guidelines set out by the Malaysian Islamic Development Department for its premises.

These requirements include that Burger King must only use halal ingredients that comply with the law and follow Islamic guidelines.

Not only that, but they must also have a halal kitchen and follow halal guidelines for food preparation and storage.

The JAKIM halal certificate issued to Burger King allows users to identify premises that serve halal food and follow Islamic food preparation and control guidelines.

 

Please Be Careful

Just a reminder, as Muslims, let’s avoid making assumptions like this:

• If you see someone wearing a hijab eating inside Burger King, don’t assume the premise is confirmed halal
• If you see one of the employees wearing a hijab, don’t assume the premise is halal
• Don’t assume that just because something is labelled “No Pork, No Lard” or “No Alcohol” it’s automatically halal and okay to eat.

Yes, you have the freedom to spend your money however you please.

But if you opt for permissible things that fall within the scope of halal, you can enjoy a blissful meal without guilt.

We hope that the question about Burger King halal status has been answered.
