Would it be wrong to dissect a fetal pig for a class with gloves on?
Question
In my science class, my teacher said that we would have to dissect a fetal pig. Is it haraam to touch a pig? If so, would it be wrong to dissect it if I wore gloves??
Answer
It is permissible to dissect a pig for research purposes.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
