What is the Halal or Haram Checker?
This tool helps you look into a question of halal and haram. You type a question such as whether a food, a job or an activity is permissible, and it brings together evidence from the Quran and hadith along with the views of the four schools of thought: Hanafi, Maliki, Shafii and Hanbali.
Answers are produced with the help of an AI model and are labelled with a verdict colour and the supporting texts. The verdict is a starting point for study. It is not a fatwa, and it cannot take your personal circumstances into account.
3 steps to your result

Open the Quran and hadith sections, then the views of the schools, and check each reference.
Bookmark a result to find it again, or copy the link. Then take the question to a scholar if you need a ruling.
What you get

Questions people ask
Is this a fatwa?
No. It is a study aid. For a ruling you will act on, ask a qualified scholar or your local mosque.
Where does the evidence come from?
It cites the Quran and hadith, and the views of the four schools. Check each reference yourself or with a scholar, because summaries can be incomplete.
Why do the schools sometimes disagree?
Scholars may read the evidence differently or weigh sources in different ways. This is a recognised part of Islamic scholarship.
Can the answer be wrong?
Yes. Because the answer is produced with an AI model, it can miss detail or misstate a point. Always verify before you act.
