Halal Travel


As my regular readers will know LM has a particular interest in promoting Halal travel amongst Muslims and also to ensure that when we do go on a holiday or business trip the opportunity to do so in a Halal way is available.

One man who should be described as the pioneer of halal travel is Fazal Baharden describes here his motivation for establishing cresentrating which rates hotels according to their halal compliance an issue I have previously highlighted here and here.

London Muslim believes that as in the case of the Muslim futurist, Halal travel will prove to be the future for increasingly discerning Muslim holidaymakers and businessmen. However, one risk may prove to be more operators entering the market thus potentially reducing the opportunity for one global halal travel standard. LM urges all operators entering the Halal travel accreditation market to ensure they work jointly in partnership in order to establish one standard that is internationally recognised by the Muslim Ummah rather than a plethora of different and potentially confusing quality marks.
