Is Almond Meringue Confectionery Halal?
MUSHBOOH
Vanilla extract is listed; extracts use alcohol as a carrier, though only a tiny, non-intoxicating trace remains in the finished food. An alcohol-free vanilla or plain vanilla-flavouring declaration would avoid the question.
Hanafi, Jafari, Hanbali — Allowed: their opinion is that a trace too small to intoxicate does not carry the ruling of wine, so it is allowed.
Shafi, Maliki — Not allowed: their opinion is that liquid intoxicants are not permitted, and alcohol-carried flavouring makes the food impure, so it should be avoided.
