Computed from named public guides — NOT independently scholar-ratified. For doubtful items, consult a scholar you trust. Halalyzer never invents a ruling and never uses AI for the verdict.

Source-dependent: porcine gelatin is HARAM; bovine gelatin from zabihah slaughter is HALAL; non-zabihah bovine is MUSHBOOH (Lenient may accept via istihalah). Default MUSHBOOH when source undisclosed.
