Literally, "lawful" (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

halal

(Other definitions for halal that I've seen before include "which food is legal in Mecca" , "Meat slaughtered in accordance with Islamic law" , "Meat prepared according to Muslim law" , "food legally approved" , "specially prepared type of meat" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
