HARAM
The glazing agent shellac (E904) is a shine made from a resin secreted by the lac insect, and we follow the cautious view on it.
Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali — their opinion: it is a secretion, like honey from a bee, rather than the insect itself, so it is allowed.
Hanafi — their opinion: it comes from an insect and may contain insect parts, so it should be avoided. Jafari — their opinion: scholars differ about insect products, so they treat it as doubtful and avoid it.
