Is French Mini Pastries Halal?
MUSHBOOH
It contains emulsifiers (E471 and E472B) whose fat may be plant-based or animal-based, including pork; a plant or halal source is not stated, and a plant or vegetarian declaration would settle it.
Jafari, Zaydi — their opinion: an unstated source does not have to be investigated, so the emulsifiers are allowed.
Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali, Ibadi — their opinion: the fat could be pork, so a plant or halal source is required and the pastries should be avoided.
