Do Haredim join the minyan?
I heard from my father that because the Haredim have separated themselves from us, they often will not eat our food, will not enlist with us, have separated themselves from us in every cultural and social aspect, etc. They do not join a minyan, such as a Cohen who eats with a donation that Israel does not join with him for the zimon, and therefore someone who is careful about fancy kashrus and cannot eat with me cannot be called with me, and likewise, and for other reasons in addition, he cannot join a minyan because he has separated himself from us.

Does the priest not join Israel, even when he eats halal food?
What is the source of the law?
The questioner probably refers to Gemara Archin 4:1, where it is stated that an Israelite who has eaten a halal meal does not join a priest who has eaten a teruma, because an Israelite cannot eat with the priest. But this has been rejected to the conclusion that the priest can eat with the Israelite. Therefore, even if the priest eats a teruma, they join, and certainly if he eats a halal meal.
But theoretically, it can indeed be seen from this that if there are two people who cannot eat from the other's food, they do not join. But this is a very far-fetched picture. Perhaps if there is a Jew who undertakes not to eat Haredi kosher, there is room to discuss joining.
In my answer, I did not address the question of joining with a summons in the formal sense, but rather joining with them in a minyan, for example, which is not related to who can eat what.
