Is Watermelon Chewing Gum Halal?
MUSHBOOH
The humectant (E422), glycerol, may come from plant oil or animal fat; “vegetable glycerin” or a vegan claim would settle its source.
Jafari — their opinion: an additive with an unknown source is allowed, so this gum is permitted.
Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali — their opinion: because the fat could be animal-derived, they treat it as doubtful unless a plant source is named.
