Is Sugar-Free Chewing Gum Halal?
MUSHBOOH
The label lists humectant (E422), which can come from plant oil or animal fat; a “vegetable glycerin” label or vegan claim would settle the source.
Jafari — Allowed: an additive with an unknown source is treated as permissible.
Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali — Doubtful: it could come from animal fat, so they require a named plant source and advise avoiding it when unclear.
