Is Swiss Hard Cheese Halal?
MUSHBOOH
The label identifies Swiss hard cheese, but does not state whether its rennet is from a halal source or microbial.
Hanafi — Allowed: their opinion is that rennet remains pure even if the animal was not slaughtered Islamically.
Shafi, Maliki, Jafari, Zaydi, Hanbali, Ibadi — Doubtful: their opinion is that rennet should come from a halal source; a microbial-rennet or vegetarian declaration would resolve this.
