The Ruling on Raising Chickens in the House
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He has a question regarding raising chickens in the house: is it lawful or forbidden?
Answer:
This is the way of that. Is there, Abu Muhammad, any prohibition regarding the hen, and does it extend to domesticated birds? Those that are eaten and from which benefit is derived, what is eaten by them? On the condition that he provides for it what it needs of water and food, and does not confine it, and places it in a suitable location, meaning that he treats it well and raises it well and does not harm it. If he does that, there is no harm. May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good, from the Arab Republic of Egypt.
