The Islamic dietary laws (Halal) and the Jewish dietary laws (Kashrut; in English, Kosher) are both quite detailed, and contain both points of similarity and discord. While both are dietary laws of Abrahamic religions, they have different roots: an explanation of the Islamic code of law found in the Quran and a Jewish code of laws found in the Talmud.
For most Muslim sects, Kosher is subset of Halal, accordingly Muslims can generally eat Kosher food, but Jews cannot eat all Halal food.

Famous quotes containing the words comparison of, comparison, jewish and/or laws:
“But the best read naturalist who lends an entire and devout attention to truth, will see that there remains much to learn of his relation to the world, and that it is not to be learned by any addition or subtraction or other comparison of known quantities, but is arrived at by untaught sallies of the spirit, by a continual self-recovery, and by entire humility.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“Certainly there is not the fight recorded in Concord history, at least, if in the history of America, that will bear a moments comparison with this, whether for the numbers engaged in it, or for the patriotism and heroism displayed.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“It is most important that we should keep in this country a certain leisured class.... I am of the opinion of the ancient Jewish book which says there is no wisdom without leisure.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“What comes over a man, is it soul or mind
That to no limits and bounds he can stay confined?
You would say his ambition was to extend the reach
Clear to the Arctic of every living kind.
Why is his nature forever so hard to teach
That though there is no fixed line between wrong and right,
There are roughly zones whose laws must be obeyed?”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
