Is Strawberry Sponge Cakes Halal?

MUSHBOOH

It contains mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids, an emulsifier whose fat may be plant-based or animal-based, including pork; a plant or halal source would settle it.

Jafari, Zaydi — their opinion: the named emulsifier is allowed when the label does not identify an animal source, so it is allowed.

Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi, Hanbali, Ibadi — their opinion: the fat could come from pork, so a plant or halal source is required and it should be avoided without one.
