Conforming to Islamic dietary laws (5)

I believe the answer is:

halal

(Other definitions for halal that I've seen before include "(Of meat) suitable for Muslims" , "which food is legal in Mecca" , "Conforming to Muslim dietary laws" , "Meat prepared according to Muslim law" , "Meat slaughtered in accordance with Islamic law" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Guardian.
