Is Processed Cheese Slices Halal?

MUSHBOOH

The cheese contains rennet, but the label does not say whether it comes from a halal source; a microbial or vegetarian-rennet declaration would settle this.

Hanafi, Jafari — their opinion: rennet remains pure even if the animal was not slaughtered Islamically, so it is allowed.

Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali — their opinion: rennet should come from a halal source, so they treat an unconfirmed source as doubtful and avoid it.
