The Ruling on Raising Pigs for Display
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We conclude this session with this question, Honorable Shaykh: Is it permissible to raise an animal, such as a pig, in a garden for the purpose of viewing by visitors, and not for food or sale?
Answer:
It is not permissible to feed a pig because it is impure, and there is a fear that someone might become bold enough to eat its meat, which is forbidden by the explicit text of the Qur'an. Therefore, it is not permissible to feed a pig. Yes.
