Is Mint Pastilles Halal?
HALAL
The label lists the emulsifier E470b, whose fat source can be plant or animal; the package gives no source, and no labelling rule requires it to. A plant-source or vegetarian claim would settle this.
Jafari — their opinion: an unstated source does not need to be investigated, so it is allowed.
Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali — their opinion: the fat could come from pork, and processing does not change its ruling, so they treat it as doubtful without a plant or halal source.
