The idea of creating a unified, modern ecosystem of halal products and services inspired us to develop a platform that meets the needs of Muslims as well as a broader audience. We build our project on the foundational principles of halal criteria, ensuring high quality and adherence to tradition. What we offer: Access to halal services and products, so everyone can easily find what they need. Quality assurance: all products and services are overseen by partners from the Halal Standard Committee of the Republic of Tatarstan. Information about mosques: find nearby mosques and prayer rooms, along with prayer times. Wide selection: A variety of products and services: a directory with photos and contact details where business owners can create profiles that are reviewed by experts. Cafes and restaurants: a directory of dining establishments with valid certificates from the Halal Standards Committee. Financial tools: a guide to Islamic financial offerings under the Central Bank of Russia’s experimental framework, allowing users to explore available financial institutions. We also offer our own “Halal Navigation” service: a map displaying mosques and prayer rooms, and “Sadaqah for Mosques,” which allows users to make donations. Join us and discover the world of halal opportunities!
