Bayhaqi 19693 — Which cheese is lawful and which is not

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثنا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ الْبَارِقِيِّ أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ عَنِ الْجُبْنِ، فَقَالَ: " كُلْ مَا صَنَعَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ وَأَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ "، وَرُوِّينَا مِثْلَ هَذَا عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، وَأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، وَهَذَا لِأَنَّ السِّخَالَ تُذْبَحُ، فَتُؤْخَذُ مِنْهَا الْإِنْفَحَةُ الَّتِي بِهَا يَصْلُحُ الْجُبْنُ، فَإِذَا كَانَتْ مِنْ ذَبَائِحِ الْمَجُوسِ، وَأَهْلِ الْأَوْثَانِ لَمْ يَحِلَّ، وَهَكَذَا إِذَا مَاتَتِ السَّخْلَةُ فَأُخِذَتْ مِنْهَا الْإِنْفَحَةُ لَمْ تَحِلَّ.
Ali al-Bariqi (may Allah have mercy on him) said that he asked Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) about cheese, and he said: "Eat what the Muslims and the People of the Book make." A similar report has also been transmitted from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas and Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with them).
Note: A young kid that is still suckling is slaughtered, and then something is taken out of its stomach; after being steeped in a cloth, it becomes like cheese, which people eat like cheese. If the animal was slaughtered by Magians or idol-worshippers, eating it is not permissible. Likewise, if the young kid dies, it is not permissible to make anything like cheese from it.
