Assalam-U-Alakum

Trusted and experienced Muslims oversee and carry out the processing of Harris Ranch Halal Beef. Amin Attia, former president of the Islamic Center of Central California (Masjid Fresno), has supervised and certified our Halal Beef program since it was established in 1992.

Mr. Attia has been slaughtering Halal meat according to strict Islamic requirements for the Muslim Communities of California since 1986. His experience, knowledge and honesty have earned him trust and certification for this task.

The method Mr. Attia uses for Halal slaughter has been approved and licensed by the highest Islamic Institution in the world, Al-Azhar El-Sharif Mosque in Cairo, Egypt, and the Islamic Service Center of America (ISCA).

Not all products produced by Harris Ranch are available as Halal.
