As long as the Halal food is made available to all prisoners then I'm fine with it as long as the prison is able to offer the special menu without any significant impact to their budget or facilities.
You absolutely cannot treat prisoners differently from each other for any reason other than the behaviour they exhibit.
I forget who said it but someone made the insightful point that you can tell a lot about a nation by the way it treats its prisoners. That should be a guiding principal in making a decision whether or not to accomodate the request.
