When it comes to cleanliness and hygiene, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, disinfectants play a crucial role in ensuring we live in a safe and healthy environment. But for Muslims, the question arises: Are disinfectants Halal? Let's break down this question to understand better.
What Does "Halal" Mean?
Before diving into whether disinfectants are Halal, it's essential to understand what the term "Halal" means. In Islamic law, "Halal" refers to anything that is permissible and clean. It is often used to describe food, drink, and products that meet specific criteria set out by Islamic standards.
Are Disinfectants Halal?
Disinfectants, especially those used frequently in households and public spaces, often contain alcohol, which raises concerns for many Muslims. Alcohol is considered Haram (forbidden) in Islam, and therefore, disinfectants with high alcohol percentages may not be suitable for Muslims who want to maintain their Halal lifestyle.
However, disinfectants are essential for maintaining hygiene and preventing the spread of harmful bacteria and viruses. The global outbreak of the coronavirus further highlighted the need for frequent disinfection. As hygiene standards have become stricter, Muslims also require products that align with their religious beliefs and safety concerns.
The Challenge: Can Muslims Use Non-Halal Disinfectants?
Given that most conventional disinfectants contain alcohol, Muslims face a dilemma. How can they effectively disinfect their homes, workplaces, and public spaces while adhering to Halal standards?
Logic Sept Plus: The Solution to the Dilemma
This concern led to the development of a solution. At Logic Germ, we took a closer look at our own disinfectants. Our original disinfectant, Logic Sept, contained 30% alcohol along with the active ingredients 1-propanol and benzalkonium. However, we understood the need for a Halal-friendly alternative.
This led to the creation of Logic Sept Plus, a 0% alcohol disinfectant. This formula uses only benzalkonium, which is effective in eliminating harmful bacteria and viruses, including the coronavirus. The effectiveness of Logic Sept Plus has been thoroughly tested, and it has passed all tests for its action against bacteria and viruses, providing long-lasting protection for up to 3 hours.
Logic Sept Plus: Halal Certified
After its development, Logic Sept Plus was tested by Halal authorities to ensure it meets Halal requirements. We are pleased to announce that Logic Sept Plus successfully passed this test and is now Halal certified. This means that Muslims can now safely use this disinfectant to clean their skin, surfaces, and even the air in their homes or workplaces without compromising their religious beliefs.
A Safe and Effective Solution
The Logic Sept Plus disinfectant is not just Halal-certified; it is also safe and effective. With 0% alcohol, it is gentle on sensitive skin, making it suitable for children and the elderly. Additionally, it is effective on porous surfaces like rubber and suede, ensuring that products and materials retain their quality while being thoroughly disinfected.
Moreover, Logic Sept Plus can be used for air disinfection. Airborne bacteria and viruses are a significant concern, and disinfecting the air in places like homes, offices, schools, and even cars is essential. Logic Sept Plus can be used with a steam engine or disinfection machine to spread the disinfectant in the air, effectively eliminating harmful microorganisms.
Don't Forget Your Pets!
Our pets can also harbour bacteria and viruses, which is why it’s important to disinfect their belongings, like pet pens, and even their skin. Fortunately, Logic Sept Plus is also safe for use on pets, providing another layer of protection for your furry friends.
Conclusion
The creation of Logic Sept Plus has filled a critical need for Muslims looking for a Halal-certified disinfectant that is both effective and safe. With its 0% alcohol formula, it ensures that hygiene and religious standards are met without compromise. Whether you're disinfecting your skin, surfaces, or the air, Logic Sept Plus offers a safe, Halal-certified solution that everyone can trust.
