Is Pastry Halal?

MUSHBOOH

The mono- and diglycerides in the margarine and cheese blend may come from plant oil or animal fat, and the label gives no source; a vegetarian claim or plant-source note would settle it.

Jafari — their opinion: an unspecified source need not be investigated, so it is allowed.

Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali — their opinion: the fat could be pork, so without a plant or halal source it remains doubtful and should be avoided.
