Abstract
In Kazakhstan, there are not many service companies that build businesses based on Sharia law. However, the Islamic principles of work cover more and more business sectors every year. There are Halal hotels, cafes, restaurants, as well as clinics that provide Halal medical services. Halal Hotels industry started to develop and gain popularity in Kazakhstan in 2011, when the Republic of Kazakhstan became the head of Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and Almaty and Astana hosted the Asian games, where the majority of athletes came from Muslim countries. Today, Kazakhstan has hotels where halal elements are present; almost all of them are the largest in the country and also has a five-star status.
