The ruling on selling the semen of a stallion for artificial insemination
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is Abu Abd al-Rahman, who sent a question asking: Is it permissible to pay a price for the semen of a stallion for the insemination of animals, whether they are camels, cows, horses, or others, to the owner of the stallion, especially since there is a high demand for this regarding horses? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited the sale of the semen of a stallion; because this is among the matters that relate to honor and generosity, and selling it is base. Selling this water is a baseness on the part of the person; it should be given without a price. This is what is required and befitting of people of good character and honor. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
