Questions
Is Chick-fil-A zabiha?
Muzzmi has not found any Chick-fil-A on the roster of a zabiha certifier (HMS, HFSAA, HMA or HMC). Even where the chain says its chicken is halal, that does not say whether it was hand slaughtered. Halal vs zabiha.
A Chick-fil-A near me says it is halal. Can I trust it?
Ask to see the certificate. Check that it is current, that it names the restaurant and not only the meat supplier, and that the certifier lists the store on its own website. A 2024 CBC Marketplace investigation found fast food staff showing supplier certificates and expired ones. How to tell if a restaurant is halal.
How does Muzzmi decide a status?
Certified zabiha means a certifier with a public roster (HMS, HFSAA, HMA or HMC) lists that exact outlet, and the rosters are re-read every week. Everything else is labelled for what it is: a claim, partially halal, or unverified. More on how places are checked.
