Is Pesto Sauce Halal?
MUSHBOOH
This pesto contains cheese with rennet, but the rennet source is not stated; a microbial or vegetarian-rennet note would settle it.
Hanafi, Jafari, Zaydi — their opinion: calf rennet remains pure even without confirmed Islamic slaughter, so it is allowed.
Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali, Ibadi — their opinion: the rennet should come from a halal-slaughtered or microbial source, so it should be avoided when unclear.
