Bararthani Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Question: Some soaps contain pigs' fat or other animals not slaughtered Islamically. Furthermore, we do not know whether or not chemical change has taken place in the manufacturing process. Can such soaps be considered Tahir? [Chemical change is a purifying agent in the sense that it purifies a najis item.] Answer: As long as you are not sure that it is ritually impure (najis), it is to be considered pure and you can use it, applying all the rules of purity to it without any hesitation or doubt. However, If it is proven to contain those [impure] elements, it should be considered impure, except if the occurrence of chemical change is proven. Such a change is not proven in manufacturing of soaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
