حلال
Kawn ad-Din
الْحَلَالُ بَيِّنٌ وَالْحَرَامُ بَيِّنٌ، وَبَيْنَهُمَا مُشَبَّهَاتٌ لَا يَعْلَمُهَا كَثِيرٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ، فَمَنِ اتَّقَى الْمُشَبَّهَاتِ اسْتَبْرَأَ لِدِينِهِ وَعِرْضِهِ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “The lawful is clear and the unlawful is clear, and between them are doubtful matters that many people do not know. Whoever guards against the doubtful matters protects his religion and his honor.”

al-Bukhari, 52

E1517 Glyceryl diacetate — is it halal?

Ruling: Mashbuh (doubtful)

Description

A carrier and humectant: diacetin, a mixture of glycerol 1,2- and 1,3-diacetates. In the EU allowed only as a carrier in flavourings; allowed in the EAEU; not found as a food additive in Codex, China (GB 2760) or the US. The instruments do not name the glycerol origin; a Chinese diacetin patent explains the interest by the surplus of biodiesel glycerol made from animal and plant fats (动植物油脂), species not named.

Basis of the ruling

Glyceryl diacetate (diacetin) is a diester of glycerin and acetic acid. The standards do not name the origin of the glycerin; a Chinese patent on diacetin uses glycerin from biodiesel, which is made from animal and vegetable fats, animal species not named.
