Is steak halal?
No. For Jains, eating meat is not allowed because of ahimsa (non-violence). Steak would involve eating beef, which is forbidden in Jainism. Halal refers to a Islamic method of slaughter, but the key issue for Jain ethics is that killing animals is not permitted in either Digambar or Shwetambar traditions. Some Jains also avoid certain plant foods (like roots) for additional ahimsa reasons, but meat is generally prohibited across all Jain groups.
