Question:
This is a question about taking medications that contain animal fats, and these medications are imported from the disbelievers.
Answer:
The fact that they are imported from the disbelievers does not prevent their use if they become permissible. However, if these fats are from permissible animals, there is nothing wrong with them, because the fat of a permissible animal is permissible. But if these fats are from forbidden animals, such as the pig or carrion, it is not permissible to use them. Yes.
