The Ruling on Selling and Buying Bones
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is it permissible for us to benefit from bones, since they are bought and sold in our country?
Some scholars hold that there is no harm in selling them;Because regarding the bone, they say: life does not pass through them, so they are not considered carrion,But most scholars say: that life does pass through them, and they are considered dead. You know that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited selling carrion, except for the skin if it is tanned, in which case it becomes pure and may be sold and used. The precaution is that they should not trade in them, but perhaps your scholars there will issue a ruling based on the second opinion, which states: that it is not carrion, because life did not pass through it.
And as for what is said: The claim that the left side is forbidden and the right side is lawful has no basis. Either it is all lawful or all forbidden.
