THANK YOU FOR VISITING OUR COUNTRY

Mexico may not have a large Muslim community, but many of us are doing our best and putting our hearts into making your visit as halal-friendly as possible.

There are many ways to explore Mexico in a safe and halal-friendly way. These drinks are fantastic options to celebrate and join the collective spirit without alcohol.

We hope you leave with wonderful memories and a desire to come back someday. ❤️

We don’t have a lot of Muslim visitors in Mexico. However, we will be hosting the Iraqi and Iranian teams (and many of their fans), so we wanted to create a little guide for them while they are in our country.

Even though, for ethical reasons, we are not creating anything special for the World Cup and are choosing to stay away from the event, we do believe in making our country a more welcoming place for everyone who chooses to visit.

So, what is halal?

Halal is an Arabic word that means “permissible” or “allowed.”

When it comes to food, many people know that Muslims do not eat pork, but halal dietary practices go beyond that. For observant Muslims, the animal must also be slaughtered according to Islamic guidelines, which means that chicken, beef, or lamb are not automatically halal simply because they are not pork.

Because halal-certified meat is difficult to find in much of Mexico, many Muslim travelers choose to enjoy the country’s incredible seafood and vegetarian dishes instead.

When a Muslim traveler asks questions about ingredients, cooking methods, broths, or lard, they are not being picky—they are trying to follow an important part of their faith, just as someone with dietary restrictions, allergies, or other religious practices would.

A little patience and understanding can go a long way in helping visitors feel welcome.

We need to be reminded of the huge implications an event like this has in a country like Mexico. And also question the hypocrisy of choosing a fascist state to host an international event where the human rights of many participants can’t be guaranteed.
