Question: 169562
Is working with pigs in university laboratories permissible?.
Praise be to Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah. To proceed:
There is nothing wrong with raising pigs and rats to carry out scientific experiments on them, so long as you do not touch the pig except with a barrier, such as gloves, or you wash your hands after touching it.
