Is it halal?
Point your camera at the label.
Tayyib reads every ingredient on the pack against the haram and mushbooh lists, checks whether meat was slaughtered the Islamic way, and explains what each ingredient actually is.
Built for Muslim shoppers, in markets where most local packs have never been catalogued by anyone. Free. No account. No location permission.
Android is in final testing; iOS follows. This page will carry the real links the day each store listing goes live.
No haram flags
Nothing in the list matches the haram or doubtful rules. A screen of the label, not a certificate.
Not halal
Pork, gelatine of unstated source, alcohol, blood, carmine. Pork has no permissible percentage — a trace counts.
Doubtful
E471, glycerol, whey, unstated flavouring, uncertified meat. The reason is shown so you can decide, or ask the maker.
What it actually does
A barcode only finds a pack somebody has already catalogued. Most local brands are not. Every pack has an ingredient panel on the back, so that is the main way in.
Scan the ingredients
Photograph the ingredient panel, or pick a picture from your gallery. The text is read on your phone and never uploaded — only what you confirm is sent, and only if you choose to add the pack to the database.
Every ingredient explained
Not just a verdict. Each line says what the substance is, where it comes from, and where the doubt sits when there is doubt.
345E-numbers
The complete published range, E100 to E1521. A code we do not carry is reported as doubtful, never as fine.
364named ingredients
Including the vocabulary Western databases do not carry — hing, gosht, besan, ghee, vanaspati, kaju, khus khus.
The slaughter question
Beef, chicken, lamb and goat are halal animals. The meat is only halal if the animal was slaughtered correctly, so Tayyib says "check how it was slaughtered" rather than pretending the pack is clear.
A health score too
Nutrition, additive risk and an organic mark, out of 100. It rides along — the halal verdict is what leads.
What it will never claim
Tayyib does not say "100% verified halal", and it never will. A lookup can be exact — if a pack says E120, the answer is fixed. A verdict cannot be, and pretending otherwise is how somebody eats something haram on our word.
A label is allowed to print "natural flavouring" and stop there. A camera can misread small print. A manufacturer can change a recipe without changing the pack. Scholars differ on shellfish, on residual alcohol, on meat from the People of the Book. None of that is ours to settle.
So the app tells you how much of the list it recognised, shows its reasoning, and says plainly when a question cannot be answered from a label. No brand can pay to change a score or buy a halal verdict.
Next, after launch
One thing at a time. The scanner ships first.
Halal shops and restaurants, on a map
Find halal places near you, anywhere in the world. It will carry the same rule as everything else here: no place is marked halal unless a person has checked it and recorded the evidence. A listing that has not been verified will say so.
