Is Mediterranean Cheese Halal?
MUSHBOOH
This cheese contains enzymes, and the label does not confirm whether the rennet is microbial or from an Islamically slaughtered animal; a microbial-rennet note, vegetarian claim, or halal mark would settle it.
Hanafi, Jafari, Zaydi — their opinion: rennet remains pure even without confirmed halal slaughter, so the cheese is allowed.
Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali, Ibadi — their opinion: the rennet should come from a halal or microbial source, so this cheese should be avoided until confirmed.
