Is Smoked Cheddar Halal?
MUSHBOOH
This cheddar contains rennet, but the label does not state whether it is microbial or from an Islamically slaughtered animal. A microbial, vegetable-rennet, vegetarian, or halal mark would settle the concern.
Hanafi — their opinion: rennet remains permissible even when the animal’s death was not confirmed, so it is allowed.
Shafi, Maliki, Jafari, Hanbali — their opinion: the rennet should come from a halal source, so it should be avoided until confirmed.
