Al-Zain: Halal organic chicken by Dr Mohamad Zainol
I first knew about this locally produced halal organic chicken from a Majalah 3 show a few months ago and had been a regular customer of this halal product.
The next day, I went to the outlet which is located in Taman Nirwana and there were long queue at the shop to buy the chicken. Dr Zainol also mentioned that there were about 200 people at his farm the same morning…. all were eager to find out what is this halal organic chicken is all about.
Dr Zainol’s halal organic chicken (also known as ayam kampung in Malay or free range chicken) is special in many ways.
Al-Zain’s organic chicken are not only bred and raised without any chemicals, antibiotic, growth hormon or animal-based protein which are prohibitied by Islam, but they are also given habbatus sauda (black seed) as part of their daily dietary. At this point, there is no other commercially bred poultry I know are fed with habatus sauda although there could be other breeders following suit in the future.
I really like the taste of the cooked organic chicken, maybe due to the special dietary given. And I can vouch here that the chicken is almost 100% fat free… which is very good for health. With Al-Zain halal organic chicken, you get a really high quality product that is guaranteed to be processed 100% according to shariah requirements… and it is free from any chemicals which could pose health hazard to you and family in the long term.
At around RM16 per bird, it is a little bit expensive but if you are concern about long term health and want to make sure your chicken are absolutely halal in the way it is produced processed, it is defintely a good buy because free range chicken offered at normal wet markets are also about the same price if not more expensive.
You can of course order the chicken from Dr Zainol outlet and have it delivered to your house by his increasing network of dealers. Just ask him for nearest stockist near your place and you can order from them directly next time.
For your information, I just had my dinner with Al-Zain’s fried organic chicken and it was so yummy… you should try.

Dr Zainol telah menyempurnakan salah satu tuntutan fardhu kifayah dalam agama. Lebih2 lagi ketika dunia menghadapi krisis makanan. Untuk lahirkan modal insan yang bertaqwa dan berkualiti mestilah berasaskan sumber yang halal. Justeru boleh saya dapatkan stokis atau pengedar di sekitar Hulu Selangor? Harap dapat dibantu.

Ayam disembelih dgn tangan, amat bagus sbb menepati kaedah Halal, tetapi perlu diingatkan semasa hendak menyembelih ayam yang kedua, pisau perlu dibasuh dahulu kerana menggunakan pisau penyembelihan yang telah berlumuran darah adalah najis….setiap kali mesti dibasuh dahulu..adakah produk ini menepati situasi ini?
CJCM: Yg ni kena tanya Dr Zainol sendiri. Allah Maha Mengetahui. TQ

Salam Cik Nima,
Yg kita keluarkan ayam kampung organik. Harga akan nampak tinggi jika dibandingkan dengan ayam daging biasa. Biasanya ayam organik sahaja dijual dgn harga RM25 seekor. Ayam kpg pula dlm RM9-10 sekilo. Jika perbandingan yg betul dibuat, saudari akan dapati harga ayam azzain adalah sangat berpatutan.
Flyers dijual dengan harga 10sen sekeping sahaja.
Terima kasih.

Hi,
I am from Singapore wanting to import halal and organic chicken and am happy to come across this product mentioned in a few blogs.
Only one thing is that I think many of you have misquoted with a statement about pig enzyme being used in chicken which is not true. We should not scare people unnecessarily since a good product need not use scare techniques.
The enzyme used is phytase which breaks down phytate from grains and seeds which chickens cannot digest. Phytase is only produced by ruminants like cows and goats.
Animals with one stomach like humans, chickens, dogs, pigs, etc. cannot produce phytase, so monograstic animals cannot be used to produce the enzyme for digesting phytate.
Regards
Craig Abdullah

Dear Brother
The ordinary people call it pig enzyme, but it is hydrolyzed pig protein.
Please surf the net for a book call Not On The Label written by a famous instigative author. She and BBC made a stunning discovery on how the chickens are fed with hydrolyzed protein to Fasten their growth . In a lab analysis in Manchester after much complaint from consumers it was proven that chicken in the UK contains 55% pig properties in the DNA test.
Please read this book and the findings you will shocked. So its not misquote it’s the happening in the industry and this author has fought for the consumer rights of the Muslim.
Hope with your expertise you will do more to educate the Muslim consumers.

Salam,
Thank you for clarifying my error.
Hydrolised protein normally is used in the manufacture of burgers, nuggets, fish cakes, sausages, etc. The purpose is to add bulk (make it look bigger) to the product, and to retain water so the product don’t become dry.
The use of hydrolised protein is done by food processors, not farmers since you cannot inject hydrolised protein into live chickens. It is also pointless to feed the chickens hydrolised protein because of the cost-benefit. You do it to whole dressed chickens or to chicken parts or to processed chicken meat like nuggets, etc. The purpose is to add water into the chicken or meat, and the hydrolised protein to hold the water so it does not come out. That way, you can sell the chicken for a higher price because of the extra water inside. This is done also to fish ball and products like that. If the hydrolised protein comes from beef or pork, then you will likely find beef or pork DNA inside the chicken meat or fish ball or fish paste or beef sausage, etc. Since chicken is one of the cheapest meats, chances are you will find chicken DNA in beef sausages, burgers, fish balls, etc. Halal certifying bodies are aware of the use of hydrolised protein in food processing and are very strict about the sources of such products. Some allow only hydrolised proteins from vegetable sources. I believe Jakim is one of those bodies that insist that hydrolised protein must be plant in origin.
Some factory chickens (ayam daging) in Malaysia and Singapore can have up to 15% water. Most processors use chemicals to hold the water inside the chicken because it is cheaper. The same is true for certain seafood like scallops, etc. That is why most time when you roast a factory chicken, you would lose more weight than a real chicken like dr. Zainol’s.
It is easy to differentiate a real chicken and a treated chicken: the meat of the treated chicken is soft and mushy. If you slice out the treated breast meat and you smooth it with the flat of your chopper, it will become smooth like jellyfish. The normal chicken is solid and have fibre. Normally, such treated meat is used in burgers to give that tender, juicy bite.
The color is also different, it does not have the color of real chicken meat with haemoglobin, myoglobin and all. The treated chicken color is pale like fish ball paste.
You can also tell the real free-range chicken from the chicken that is not. You look at the thigh meat. The thigh meat of a free-range chicken will be darker. However, you must compare with the same breed. For example, you compare an ayam kampung with an ayam kampung, not an ayam kampung with a broiler. The free-range chicken will have more myoglobin and this results in a darker color meat.

Good explanation by Craig Abdullah
You have point on every single of your sentences. But it’s to much clarifying terms in organic or process of the chicken. So from your point what is the findings and conclusion about this?
