About this app

Zabihah is the original and largest guide to halal food discovery, used millions of times each year by halal foodies around the world. Whether you're out with friends, traveling, or eating at home, Zabihah helps you find places that match your values — and the community helps verify them.

What you can do with Zabihah:

• The Feed — halal eats from people you'd actually take a recommendation from: Scroll a live mix of reviews, playlists, photos, and prayer-space check-ins from real people nearby. Tap any place to open the full detail. Post your own — write a note, tag the places, drop a live link mid-sentence with @ and the place name. All platforms share the same Feed. One halal food network, now with a way to actually talk to it.

• Discover new halal restaurants: Browse over 50,000 halal restaurants, groceries, butchers, and markets across the world. Rate your favorites, review dishes, and leave colorful moments for the community.

• Find prayer spaces near you: Find the nearest mosque, musallah, or restaurant with a prayer space — anywhere in the world. Built for travelers and anyone on the go.

• HalalRank confidence scores: See at a glance how confidently halal a restaurant is. Every restaurant gets a score (0–100) and a tier (Certified, Verified, Reported, and more) based on certificates on file, supplier evidence, and what other users have submitted. Tap a place to see the full breakdown and the sources behind it.

• Help verify how halal a place is: If you've seen a halal certificate, know a trusted supplier, or have a photo from inside the restaurant, you can submit it from any place's HalalRank section. Your evidence goes into the score for everyone else who looks the place up.

• Trending halal places: See what's getting visited right now in your city — a live, distance-aware list of the 20 fastest-rising halal spots in the last 30 days. Great for "where should we eat tonight?" without scrolling forever.

• Share a poll and decide together: Still can't agree on where to eat? Start a poll, add the contenders, and share it with friends in a tap. Anyone who opens the link can see the live results and add their vote right from it — turning "where should we go?" into a decision everyone's part of.

• Curated playlists, from Zabihah and from real people: Playlists are tight, themed lists of halal places — some hand-curated by Zabihah's team, others created by the community. Browse playlists near you, see who curated each one, share with friends, and follow the ones you love so they sit on your Bookmarks tab.

• Build your own playlist: Save a place you love straight from its detail page into one of your own playlists, or create a new one anchored to a city, with a cover photo and a description. Use it to plan a trip, share a favorite list with friends, or remember every spot worth coming back to.

• Map every place on a playlist: Flip any playlist into map view, tap a pin to preview the restaurant in a card at the bottom, and tap through to the full page. Works the same way for Zabihah's editorial lists and the ones you build yourself.

• Order delivery in a tap: When a place is on Uber Eats, DoorDash, Grubhub, Seamless, or one of the other big aggregators, the link is right there on the restaurant page.

• Dark Mode, day or night: Zabihah now follows your system appearance with a warm, easy-on-the-eyes dark theme — just as comfortable scanning reviews over dinner as it is checking prayer times before Fajr.

The world's standard in halal discovery since 1998, Zabihah is used millions of times a year to empower a mindful lifestyle in a busy digital age. With hundreds of new listings, reviews, playlists, and verifications added every month, you'll find Zabihah to be an indispensable lifestyle tool and your trusted halal resource.

Ratings and reviews

This version is horrible. The old app from years ago was much better. I am forced to use the website. I often need to go on a trip to a city far from where I live and I want to research halal options before I go. I want to *easily* find restaurants near some place, not the place where I live, nor the place where I currently am. The app gives me results for the latter two, even if I specify a location in preferences. The full address of the establishment is not listed when I click on a tile.

What happened 😕 this new version just does not work, search by location is hit and miss. I almost always get the error " something went wrong" . Back in the days I have worked on a few apps myself. Fire these backend guys, they are messing up big time. Forced to switch after 5 years of using. 😔

Its a good app. There's only 1 problem. The method of entering a new location is very difficult. In China I wanted to add a halal place which I found after quite a struggle. I could not enter it due to many questions as I didn't know the answer to many of them. Plz cut down questions to 4. Name of place, location(with option of current location from map app), pic of the restaurant from outside, and phone number (optional)
