Özet: In halal food supply chain, animal feed is considered as the initial critical control point in ensuring the halal integrity of animal chain. The uncertainties in the halalness, quality, and safety of the animal feed may consequently affect the halal and acceptable status of the halal food products. The use of pig intestines and carcasses as feed for cultivated fish by irresponsible farmers has led to frustration and anger among the Muslims community. Such practices have created uncertainties of the legality of such fish due to non-concrete solution to this subject matter. The present review utilizes qualitative approach in which data is collected through library research. The findings of this library study could be made as reference or guidelines to the authoritative bodies and policymakers in developing legal provision for the production, importation, manufacture, sale and use of halal feed, which shall be based on the Islamic principles. Muslims do not consume non-halal food. Fort his reason, farmers or related sector should collectively take the responsibility to ensure the quality, safety and halal integrity of animal production from farm to fork to sustain halal food supply.
