The Ruling on Transferring Blood from One Person to Another
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling on transferring human blood to a patient in need? I have heard some people interpret the blood mentioned in the Qur'an in the statement of Allah the Exalted: [Al-Ma'idah: 3] to include human blood as well? Please give us a ruling, may Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Yes, blood is forbidden, and it is the flowing blood, as in the other verse: [Al-An'am: 145]. This is the blood that is shed during slaughter; this is the forbidden blood.
And so are the types of blood that flow from animals, whether from the descendants of Adam or others. As for the blood that remains in the meat after slaughter... the meat... the blood, this does not harm it; because it is not flowing blood.
And if blood is transferred to his brother, from him to his brother in need, in a way that does not harm the one from whom it is taken; there is no harm if the doctor confirms that this person is in dire necessity for the blood, and his brother donates blood that does not harm him; there is no blame on him; due to the generality of the evidence in the Shari'ah regarding the permissibility of a person helping his brother, such as his statement (peace and blessings be upon him):Sahih al-Bukhari 6951 Such as his statement (peace and blessings be upon him): Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1425Sahih (Darussalam) If the doctor confirms that this blood will benefit this person in dire necessity, and will not harm the one from whom it is taken; there is no harm.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.

Prohibited to you are dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine
