Summary/Abstract: Food and drink not only affect the physical health of man, but also affect his spiritual state, morals and behavior. There are general rules that regulate haram and halal issues in nutrition, and knowledge of them helps us to distinguish between allowed and prohibited. Various additives are added in the process of food production in order to achieve better taste, smell, beautiful looks, longer durability and similar required properties. Some of these additives are of animal origin and are often obtained from parts of animals whose meat is forbidden or animals not properly slaughtered. When the unclean and banned substance by chemical treatment is transformed into another completely different matter, does this newly created substance retain the rule of the base from which it has expired or by changing it into another matter that regulation changes? Likewise, when unclean matter is mixed with pure matter in a small and minor measure, will this pure substance become prohibited or not? Islamic lawyers on these issues have different views, and it is precisely on these issues that the rules of additives and emulsifiers derived from prohibited raw materials are being built.
