Halaal - Ruling regarding Rennin/Rennet

E-mail Print PDF

Q. Kindly advise what is the ruling regarding rennin/rennet etc?

A. Jazakumullah Khairan for your query and for the opportunity to be of service to you. We advise as follows:

Rennet is a viscous liquid substance in the stomach of the calf and in the terminology of the Fuqaha (Islamic Jurists) it is deemed a substance which does not have life and is thus not regarded as an intrinsic part of the animal. Rennet derived from non-Halaal slaughtered animals is condoned with the proviso that the animal is of a Halaal specie.
