The ruling on manufactured items that contain something forbidden
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The fifth question of the fatwa number ( 7322 )
Q 5: An opinion has emerged that permits the use of manufactured items in which something forbidden has been introduced, and then this forbidden substance is processed so that it is transformed from its original nature into another nature , such as the use of forbidden fats (pig fat after it has been chemically treated to become a fat that differs in nature from pig fat, which is then used in the manufacture of soap). What is the legitimacy of this opinion, and to what extent is the use of this soap legitimate?
A 5: It is forbidden to consume pork absolutely, and its fat is included in the prohibition due to the consensus of the Muslim community on this matter. No matter how any part of the pig is processed to change its nature, it does not become permissible to use or consume it. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
