The ruling on treating with what is forbidden to kill, or with what is forbidden
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah keep you safe. Is it permissible to use for treatment what is forbidden to kill, without eating it?
The Shaykh:
This depends on the case. It is not permissible to treat with what is forbidden. It is not permissible to treat with what is impure or forbidden, based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) Yes.
The questioner:
Hm? Yes.
The Shaykh:
Poisons are not left as they are; they are treated and combined with other things and consumed. It is permissible to use them in cases of dire necessity, because this is a dire necessity. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah keep you safe.
The Shaykh:
Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:[Al-An'am 6:119]. Yes.
The questioner:
The snow that is obligatory.
The Shaykh:
Because if it is left, the person will die, and if treated with this serum they call a serum, he may be healed by the permission of Allah. This falls under the category of dire necessities.
