‘Pigskin, Hair, Fur, feathers from Dead (harram Birds/Animals)’

Summary:

A short article, based on Ahadith of Masomeenasws, is compiled which deals with pigskin, hair and fur and feather of dead and forbidden (harram) animals and birds, with main focus is on the pigskin.

Pigskin is cheap, easily available in most countries, it’s really thin but still strong enough for its weight. Therefore, it is frequently used in many products we wear and use, i.e., in shoes, leather jackets, bags, wallets. In addition to pigskin, hair, fur, rennet from animals come into our daily use, mostly, it’s difficult to trace down the origin of these (whether from dead or harram animals). Some Ahadith are presented to highlight these issues, without issuing decree (Fatwa) as the main purpose of the write-up is to generate an awareness, as most of the above are considered harram as per Fatwa of Sunni Muslims.

Introduction:

Large shoe and bag chains, i.e., Clarks, Hush Puppies, would specify if pigskin is used in their products or not, in general, mostly suede products are pig sourced, for example the linings of shoes which use external cow hide leather, may use pig sourced linings. One may check with these companies by writing to them the source of the leather. It is relatively easy, however, to recognise pigskin, as it has nano (pin) holes on its skin. Below are some example figures showing the pinholes in the pigskin.

The Mercy of Allah for the Nation of Muhammadsaww:

الصادقع قال بالمقاريض-و لومهم ق رضوا ب ول قطرة أصابأحدهم إسرائيلإذا عليكمكانب نو جل و عز الله ع وس قد وماءوالرضوجعللكمالماءطهورا الس كيفتكونونبأوسعماب ني .فانظروا

And Al-Sadiqasws (the 6th Imamasws) said: ‘It was so that the Children of Israel, whenever one of them was hit by urine, they would have to scratch off their skin with the scissors, but Allahazwj has Given you leeway with it which is more valuable than what is between the sky and the earth, and Made for you the water as a purifier, therefore watch out on how you are behaving (with gratefulness and submission)’.1

There are several Ahadith on the quantities and conditions of the water as a purifier, which are out of scope of this article and are reported at other places2, however one Hadith is reported here related to our topic.

One of our companions, from Ibn Jamhour, from Muhammad Bin Al Qasim, from Ibn Abu Yafour,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abd Allahasws having said: ‘Do not wash from the reservoir (pond) wherein the used water of the bathhouse gathers to, for therein is the washing of the son of adultery (bastard), and he is not clean up to seven fathers (generations); and therein has washed the Hostile One (Nasibi), and he is more evil of the two. Allahazwj did not Create a creature more evil than the dog, and the Hostile One (Nasibi) is lower to Allahazwj than the dog’.

ال و النصران و الي هودي و الصب و النب منه ي غتسل ام الم ماء عن أخبن الن هرق لت كماء ام الم ماء إن ف قال مجوس رب عضهب عضا. يطه

I said, ‘Inform me about the water of the bathhouse (swimming pool). From it washes the one with sexual impurity, and the children, and the Jews, and the Christians, and the Magians’. So heasws said: ‘The water of the bathhouse is like the water of the river. Some of it purifies the other’.3

Skin of the dead and pig are of the same Status:

And by his chain, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Yahya, from Abu Is’haq, from Nuh Bin Shuayb, from Bashir, from Hareez, from Zurara who said,

‘I said to Abu Abd Allahasws, ‘A well, a drop of blood drops into it, or wine’. Heasws said: ‘The blood, and the wine, and the dead, and meat of the pig, regarding that, are all one. Twenty buckets should be drawn from it, then if the smell (still) overcomes, (more) would be drawn until it is good’.4

حديث م ت قد قد واو كله ذلك ف النزير لم و الميت و المر و م الد قال: ع الله عبد أب عن عشرونزرارة منها ي نزح حد دلوا.

And a Hadeeth has preceded – Zurara,

‘From Abu Abd Allahasws having said: ‘The blood, and the wine, and the dead, and meat of the pig, regarding that, all of it is one. Twenty buckets would be drained from it’ (a well if any of these falls into).5

موالمروالميتولوحديث كلهواحدي نزحمنهاعشروندلوا.زرارةقال:الد مالنزيرفذلك

And a Hadeeth of Zurara –

‘Heasws said: ‘The blood, and the wine, and the dead, and the pig meat, regarding that, all of it is one. Twenty buckets would be drawn from it’.6

Salat is not Permissible on a leather praying Mat:

(It has been narrated) from Abu Al-Hassan Al-Rezaasws, having been asked about the skins of ‘Al-Darish’ from which shoes are made. So heasws said: ‘You cannot pray Salāt in it, for it is tanned with the excretion of dogs’.7

Ali Bin Muhammad, and someone else, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ali Bin Al Rayyan who said,

‘One of our companions wrote to himasws by the hand of Ibrahim Bin Uqba, asking himasws, meaning Abu Ja’farasws, about the Salāt upon the ‘Khumra’ (a small piece of flax to perform Sajdah upon) of Al-Medina. So heasws wrote: ‘Pray Salāt in whatever was woven with threads, but do not pray Salāt upon whatever was woven with (leather) stripes’.

كأن هاخيوطةمار كانقالف ت وقفأصحاب نافأنشدت همب يتشعرلتأبطشراالعدوان. كانرجالحبال ت غاروت فتلوماري ييوط.ي عملال

He (the narrator) said, ‘Our companions differed, so I composed a poem of Taabat Al-Adwany – It is like the threads of Marie twisted and attached’. And Marie was a man who was a weaver, and used to work with the threads’.8

A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ismail Bin Mihran, from Sayf Bin Ameyra,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abd Allahasws having said: ‘One cannot pray Salāt upon the deceased with the shoes on, but there is nothing wrong with the socks’.9

And from him, from his father, from Muhammad Bin Yahya Al Attar and Ahmad Bin Idrees, together, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, and Muhammad Bin Isa Al Yaqteeny, together, from Ayoub Bin Nuh, raising it, said,

‘Abu Abd Allahasws said: ‘The Salat in Al Khazz (skin of marten), the pure, there is no problem with it, and as for the one in which are mixed the rabbits, or others from what resembles it, so do not pray Salat in it’.11

Ali Bin Muhammad, from Abd Allah Bin Is’haq Al Alawy, from Al Hassan Bin Ali, from Muhammad Bin Suleyman Al Daylami, from Aysam Bin Aslam Al Najjashy, from Abu Baseer who said,

The furs of Al-Hijaz were not sufficiently (warm) for himasws because its tanning was it with tree sap. So heasws used to send someone to Al-Iraq, and he would come with it from what was accepted to himasws with the furs, and heasws would wear it. So when the (time for) Salāt came up, heasws would remove it and remove the shirt which was underneath it. So heasws was asked about that, and heasws said: ‘The people of Al-Iraq are considering as Permissible, wearing the skins of the dead (animals), and they are claiming that tanning it, purifies it’.21

‘I said to Abu Abd Allahasws, ‘May I be sacrificed for youasws! The dead, can one benefit from it with anything’. So heasws said: ‘No’.

I said, ‘It has reached us that Rasool-Allahsaww passed by a dead sheep, so hesaww said: ‘What was upon the owners of this sheep that when they could not benefit by its flesh, that they did not benefit from its skin?’ Heasws said: ‘That was a sheep of Sawda Bin Zam’at, wife of the Prophetsaww, and it was thin and weak, could not be benefit by its flesh. So she left it until it was dead. So Rasool-Allahsaww said: ‘What was upon the owners of this sheep that when they could not benefit by its flesh, that they did not benefit from its skin?’ i.e., slaughtering it’.33

So Qatada said to himasws, ‘Youasws have spoken the truth, by Allahazwj, may Allahazwj Make me to be sacrificed for you! By Allahazwj, these are neither houses of stones nor of clay’. Qatada said, ‘So inform me about the cheese’. He (Abu Hamza) said, ‘So Abu Ja’farasws smiled, then said: ‘Your questions have reverted to this?’ He said, ‘(It is) lost upon me’. So heasws said: ‘There is no problem with it’. So he said, ‘Sometimes they put rennet of the dead in it?’ Heasws said: ‘There is no problem with it. The rennet, there are no veins for it, nor is there blood in it, nor does it have bones for it, but rather it is extracted from between the bowels and blood’.

Then heasws said: ‘But rather, the rennet is at the status of a dead chicken from which an egg is extracted, so would you eat that egg?’ So Qatada said, ‘No, and I would not instruct with eating it’. So Abu Ja’farasws said to him: ‘And why (not)?’ So he said, ‘Because it is from the dead’. Heasws said to him: ‘So if that egg incubates, so a chicken comes out from it, would you eat it?’ He said, ‘Yes’. Heasws said: ‘So what Prohibits the egg upon you and Permits the chicken for you?’

There is no problem with eating the cheese, all of these from what the Muslim had made, or others, and rather it is disliked to eat besides the rennet from what is in the vessels of the Magians, and the People of the Book, because they do not consider the dead and the wine’.47

Appendix II: Reason for the Prohibition (dead, blood, wine, swine):

ج أبيه عن إب راهيم بن عل و زياد بن سهل عن أصحابنا من ة ب عضعد عن الله عبد بن د مم عن عثمان بن عمرو عن يعابن د مم بن أحد عن أيضا أصحابنا من ة عد و ) السالم عليه ( الله عبد أب عن عبدأصحابنا عن أسلم بن د مم عن خالد

A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, and Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, altogether, from Amro Bin Usman, from Muhammad Bin Abd Allah, from one of our companions, from Abu Abd Allah

asws, and a

number of our companions as well, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Muhammad Bin Aslam, from Abdul Rahman Bin Salim, from Mufazzal Bin Umar who said,

‘I said to Abu Abd Allahasws, ‘Inform me, may I be sacrificed for youasws, why did Allahazwj Blessed and High Prohibiting the wine, and the dead, and the blood, and the flesh of the swine?’

منه رغبة سواه لم أحل و عباده على ذلك ليرم ت عال و سبحانه الله إن وف قال لم أحل فيما زهدا ل و عليهم حرم فيماعز علم و اللق خلق بهلكنه عليهم منه ت فضال أباحه و لم فأحله يصلحهم ما و أبدان هم به ت قوم ما جل ت عالو و ت بارك

لمصلحتهموعلممايضرهمف ن هاهمعنهوحرمهعليهم

So heasws said: ‘Allahazwj Glorious and High did not Prohibit that upon Hisazwj servants, and Permit for them besides it as a Desire from Himazwj with regards to what Heazwj Prohibits upon them, nor as a Distaste with regards to what Heazwj Permitted for them, but Heazwj Created the creatures and the Mighty and Majestic Knows what their bodies stand by and what is correct for them. Thus, Heazwj Permitted for them and Authorised it for them as a Grace from Himazwj the Blessed and High, upon them with it for their correctness; and Heazwj Knows what harms them, so Heazwj Forbade them from it, and Prohibited it upon them.

بهفأمرهأني نال وأحلهلهفالوقتالذيلي قومبدنهإل أباحهللمضطر ذلكمنهبقدرالب لغةلغريث

The Heazwj Authorised it for the desperate and Permitted it for him during the time which his body would not be able to stand except by it. So, Heazwj Commanded him to take from it by a measurement of the necessity, not other than that.

ان ثقا و ق وته ذهبت و جسمه نل و بدنه ضعف إل أحد يدمن ها ل فإنه الميتة أما ل إل الميتة آكل يوت ل و نسله قطع فجأة

Then heasws said: ‘As for the dead, so no one would be habitual with it except that it would weaken his body, and slims his body, and his strength goes away, and his lineage is cut-off, and the eater of the dead would not be dying except for suddenly.

ي و الصفر الماء آكله يورث فإنه م الد أما يس و و الريح ي نت و الفم قلةبخر و القلب ف القسوة و الكلب يورث و اللق ءيمهولي لي ؤمنأني قتلولدهووالديهولي ؤمنعلىح ىمنيصحبهؤمنعلالرأفةوالرحةحت

And as for the blood, so its consumer inherits the yellow water, and odour of the mouth, and stinking wind, and he would be of evil mannerisms, and intense thirst, and the hardness in the heart, and be with scarcity of the kindness and the mercy to the extent there is no safety that he would kill his children, and his parents, and there would be no safety upon his intimate one, nor would there be safety upon the one who accompanies him.

اللهت بار كانمنالمسوخثوأمالمالنزيرفإن وما ب شبهالنزيروالقردوالد ن هىعنكوت عالمسخق ومافصورشتبعقوبتها أكلهللمث لةلكيالي نتفعالناسباوليستخف

And as for the flesh of the swine, so Allahazwj Blessed and High Morphed a people in the variety of images resembling the pig, and the monkey, and the bear, and whatever was from the mutants. Then Heazwj Forbade from eating it due to the resemblance that perhaps the people might avail themselves by it and would not belittle its consequences.

And as for the wine, so Heazwj Prohibited it due to its impact and its corruption’. And heasws said: ‘The one habitual of the wine is like a worshipper of idols. He would inherit trembling, and his light would go away, and his manhood would be demolished, and it would carry him upon being audacious upon the Prohibitions from the shedding of the blood, and indulging in the adultery. So there is no safety, when he is intoxicated, that he would leap upon his sanctimonious family members and he has no intellect for that. And the wine does not increase its drinker except with every evil’.59

( الله عبد أب عن اللب عن حاد عن عمري أب ابن عن أبيه عن إب راهيم بن عل الضب أكل عن سألته قال ) السالم عليهو الضب الفأرةوالقردةوالنازيرمسوخ.ف قالإن

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Hammad, from Al Halby,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abd Allahasws, said, ‘I asked himasws about eating the lizard. So heasws said: ‘The lizard, and the mouse, and the monkey, and the pigs, are morphed (creatures)’.60

Appendix III: Miscellaneous Ahadith

عن العلوي إسحاق بن الله عبد عن د مم بن عل عن الكلين و يخ الش رواه قد بنو سليمانالسن بن د مم عن عل رجل عليه دخل اللهعإذ عبد أب عند كنت قال: أبي عفور ابن عن قريب عن ي لم ماالد فداك جعلت ف قالله الزازين من

And it is reported by Al Sheykh and Al Kulayni, from Ali Bin Muhammad, from Abd Allah Bin Is’haq Al Alawy, from Al Hasan Bin Ali, from Muhammad Bin Suleyman Al Daylami, from Qareyb, from Ibn Abu Yafour who said,

‘I was in the presence of Abu Abd Allahasws when a man from the Khazz sellers entered and said to himasws, ‘May I be sacrificed for youasws! What are youasws saying regarding the Salat in Al-Khazz?’ So heasws said: ‘There is no problem with it’. The man said to himasws, ‘May I be sacrificed for youasws! It is dead, and it is curative, and I know it’. So Abu Abd Allahasws said to him: ‘Iasws am more knowing with it than you are’. The man said to himasws, ‘It is curative, and there isn’t anyone more knowing with it than me’.

ماتف قالالرجلصدقتمأبوعبداللهعثقالأت قولإنهدابةترجمنالماءأوتصادمنالماءف تخرجف تبس فإذافقدالماءفإ ع الله عبد أبو له ف قال هو هكذا فداك ذكاتهجعلت ف تكون اليتان حد ف هو ليس و أربع على تش دابة إنه ت قول نك

خروجهمنالماءف قالالرجلإيواللههكذاأقول

So Abu Abd Allahasws smiled, then said: ‘Are you saying it is an animal which comes out from the water, or it is trapped from the water, so it comes out, and when it loses the water, it dies?’ So the man said, ‘Youasws speak the truth, may I be sacrificed for youasws! This is how it is’. So Abu Abd Allahasws said to him: ‘So you are saying it is an animal walking upon four (legs), and it isn’t in the limits of the fishes, thus its cleanliness would be its coming out from the water’. The man said, ‘Yes, by Allahazwj, that is how I am saying’.

كماأحلاليتانوجعلذكات هاف قاللهأبوعبدالله اللهت باركوت عالأحلهوجعلذكاتهموته .61موت هاعفإن

So Abu Abd Allahasws said to him: ‘Surely Allahazwj has Permitted it and Made its death to be its cleanliness, just as Heazwj Permitted the fish and Made its death to be its cleanliness’.

Majalis of Ibn Al Shaykh – from his father, from Al Haffar, from Ismail Bin Ali, brother of Deobel,

‘From Al-Rezaasws having placed a shirt of Khazz upon Deobel and said to him: ‘Retain this shirt for Iasws prayed Salat in it for a thousand nights, each night a thousand Cycles, and completed the Quran in it, a thousand completions’ – the Hadeeth.63

How should he deal with it?’ Heasws said: ‘If he has entered into his Salat, then let him continue, and if does not happen to have entered into his Salat, then let him sprinkle upon what has hit from his clothes, except there happens to be in it a trace, so let him wash it’.65
