Is the meat of kangaroos halal?

The proper term is herbivores.

It depends on the species. The animals most commonly known as kangaroos are herbivores, primarily eating grass and other vegetation. Besides grass, they eat young shoots and tender leaves of native shrubs. They enjoy grains as well, but being herbivorous, they do not eat any other animals. Kangaroos are grazing animals, and they will regurgitate their food to chew like cattle chew their cud. These kangaroos include the larger red and grey kangaroos, as well as wallaroos, wallabies, quokkas, potoroos and bettongs, or rat-kangaroos. Bettongs also eat fungi and tubers.

Tree kangaroos eat leaves, and sometimes fruit. Some varieties of tree kangaroo are omnivores, eating insects and other invertebrates. The Goodfellow's tree kangaroo has been known to eat eggs and small birds as well.

Smaller varieties of kangaroos such as the musky-rat kangaroo are omnivores, eating fruits, seeds, fungi insect larvae and small invertebrates such as grasshoppers and beetles.

So long it is not mentioned in the holy Quran or in prophet's Sunnah as Haram "Prohibited" such as ham, alcohols, blood ... etc... then it is Halal even if cooked by Christians or Jews. We can eat from their food and meant which they slaughter.

Improved answer:Well according to Islam, everything in this life is Halal so long it is not prohibited by a verse from the Holy Quran or by a Hadith from prophet Mohammed's Sunnah. This applies to all types of food and drinks too. Sea food is all Halal (if it does not kill you of course" even dead fish, wales...etc. if still fresh they are Halal.

Allah said in the Quran:

يسألونك ماذا أحل لهم ۖ قل أحل لكم الطيبات ۙ وما علمتم من الجوارح مكلبين تعلمونهن مما علمكم اللـه ۖ فكلوا مما أمسكن عليكم واذكروا اسم اللـه عليه ۖ واتقوا اللـه ۚ إن اللـه سريع الحساب ﴿٤﴾ سورة المائدة

They ask you, [O Muhammad], what has been made lawful for them. Say, "Lawful for you are [all] good foods and [game caught by] what you have trained of hunting animals which you train as Allah has taught you. So eat of what they catch for you, and mention the name of Allah upon it, and fear Allah." Indeed, Allah is swift in account. (4) Surat Al-Maida"

and prophet Mohammed peace upon him said:

قوله صلى الله عليه وسلم { ما أحل الله فهو حلال وما حرم فهو حرام وما سكت عنه فهو عفو ، فاقبلوا من الله عافيته فإن الله لم يكن لينسى شيئا }أخرجه البزار والطبراني من حديث أبي الدرداء بسند حسن

In prophet's hadith, the prophet said: What Allah has permitted is "Halal"", what Allah has prohibited is "Haram" and what Allah has skipped is pardoned "Pardoned". So accept what Allah has pardoned you from since Allah is not a forgetful. Narrated by Tabarani.

Exceptional for India:If the food is made by Pudists and Sikh, "is allowed" so long they did not slaughter the animal themselves and so long you trust them. But if they slaughter the animal, their food is no more Halal because they are not people of the book like Christians and Jews.

Improved above.

Are emulsifiers halal?

Answering whether emulsifiers are Halal can be tricky.

Generally, emulsifiers are a general class of chemicals/additives that are used by food and pharmaceutical manufacturers. Just to name a few, emulsifiers may be used as an anti-coagulant, anti-foaming, anti-caking, preservatives, bulking and etc....Therefore for most industrial production, the need for emulsifiers are extremely critical.

They may either be written in code numbers Eg: E471, E200, E572 etc... Or the other form is the actual chemical name itself Eg: Soya Lecithin, Sorbic Acid, Sodium Acetate, etc....

The production method for each emulsifier differs. Some emulsifiers are derived from animals or plants while others are fully synthetic. In some situations, an emulsifier with the same chemical name may be produced with different methods of production and source material in rival production houses. This is usually based on efficiency issues and the availability of source materials.

Therefore, it is best to go for food that have been certified HALAL as best as you can, as these food (even the emulsifiers that have been used in production) have been checked and verified by an authorised and trusted personnel.

We can also check with the organization that produces the food items. Big organizations usually have a dedicated team to answer all your queries. It is our consumer right to know what we have bought and consume.

Hope this helps.
