What does the origin of halal show?
The word "halal" is often used by Hui people in China. In the past, people who believed in Islam were generally called Hui people, and their religion was called Qingzhen. Now, shops specializing in halal food are also marked with the word "halal". So, what does the word "halal" mean? Wang Daiyu, an Islamic scholar in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, was one of the first translators to translate Islamic law into Chinese. He wrote books such as Muslim University, and Ma Zhu, an Islamic scholar in the early Qing Dynasty, also translated the Muslim Guide, including the history, philosophy and law of Islam. When introducing Islamic sharia law, these scholars once said: "If you cover sharia law, it will be pure, true and false, and pure." If millet is in fire and water, it will pass through the country in a clean and impartial way ... "Praise God worshipped by this religion with words such as' pure and unpolluted',' unique truth',' pure and true' and' only God, which is called halal'". Therefore, Muslims call their religion Puritanism and their temples mosques. Since then, the word "halal" has spread in many places in China, and has gradually become a special term to refer to the Hui people.
