ImHalal- Islamic search engine

The world's first Islamic search engine. Across the world, Muslims can now securely surf the Internet without having to face the embarrassment of bumping into explicit or sexual content.
The guidance of Islamic scholars too was taken into account while building the search engine.This is how the search on ImHalal.com works: The search engine only fetches results that are flagged as to be halal.The search engine uses various techniques to determine which results fetched are supposed to be halal or haram. Once a user comes in contact with content of explicit nature, the search engine will return a negative search advice.When you look for something through the ImHalal.com search engine, you get results like on any other search site. But if your key words are a part of the 'danger list' specified by the developers of ImHalal.com, then your search gets a rating of one or two on the 'haram scale'. The message that you see is: 'Oops! Your search inquiry has a Haram level of 2 out of 3. This means that the results fetched by ImHalal.com could be haram!' As a user you can still decide to go through with the risk and click to see the results.
However, if your search is ranked three, then you get zero results. All you get is the communication: 'Oops! Your search inquiry has a Haram level of 3 out of 3! I would like to advise you to change your search terms and try again.'
