Question

What is the ruling in regards to being vaccinated particularly when the ingredients are fully Halaal?

Answer

Some Ulema have written that, if it is found through experience that the vaccinations are beneficial (and contain no Haraam ingredients as stated in your query) then there is no harm in utilizing such vaccinations.

Others have written that, if the benefit of the vaccination outweighs the harm, then there is no harm in utilizing the vaccination. However, if the vaccination is harmful, then it should be avoided.

Keeping the above principle in mind, one may conclude whether the vaccination should be administered or not.

Ask Ibn Masood

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