I like Pizza too, but the Halal one.. which is not avaialble in USA. -_-
Salam
Wael.
If you mean the meat used on the pizza, as long as it is not pork, then many scholars have said that it is permissable, because the majority of Americans are Christian and they are the people of the book, so their meat is permissable as long as it is not from forbidden meat like pork.
And the Christians at the time of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) weren't different than the Christians of today in believing the trinity and that Jesus was the son of God , and Allah made their meat permissable in the Quran even with these beliefs.
But if you find meat slaughtered by Muslims available then it should be priority over the other meat.
Quote:Halal pizza...
What does halal mean by the way?
Halal is opposite of haram
Halal: permissable
Haram: Forbidden
