Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is the blood of carrion impure due to the saying of the Exalted: [Al-Ma'idah 5:3]?
The Shaykh : Yes, the blood of anything other than a human. No, no, the blood of a human is different. Is a human eaten such that its blood enters this? No, answer?
The questioner : It is not eaten.
The Shaykh : Even if a person is in dire necessity? If he is in dire necessity, is it permissible or not permissible? Answer, my brother?
The questioner : It is not permissible.
The Shaykh : Even if he is in dire necessity? Even if he is in dire necessity, do you agree with this?
The student: No.
The Shaykh : You do not agree. That means, if a person is traveling and is in dire necessity to eat, and he has a companion with him who can slaughter it and eat it? No, we said the dead one. No, we are not dealing with the dead one now.
The student: If it is alive, we agree with it.
The Shaykh : You agree with it? Correct, if it is alive, it is not permissible. This is by scholarly consensus. That you kill a human being to save your own life, there is no dispute in this. But if it is dead, the well-known view among us, meaning in the Hanbali school, is that it is not permissible to eat it, even if it is dead. This is based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan Ibn Majah 1616Hasan (Darussalam) So if he says: "O people, I will die if I do not eat from it," we say: "Then die, this is your time." And some scholars, which is the Shafi'i school, held that it is permissible for the living to eat the dead in cases of dire necessity. They reasoned this by saying that the sanctity of the living is greater than the sanctity of the dead.
