The Ruling on Transplanting a Deceased Person's Bone to a Patient

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence, father. A questioner says: I am a dentist. He asks: What is the ruling on implanting bone taken from a dead person for a patient who has lost part of his natural bone?

Answer:
It is not permissible to take anything from the body of a deceased person, based on the saying of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)
Breaking the bone of a muslim when he is dead is like breaking it when he is alive.كسر عظم المسلم ميتا ككسره حيا
Muwatta Malik 16:46
. This is not permissible.
