Question

HCG 5000 shots are made from the extraction of pregnant women's urine. This is also made synthetically, using the process of synthesis peptide. This shots can be also used for loosing weight. My question is are the synthesis peptide permissible in Islam?

Answer

If it was made synthetically and there is no haraam and impure ingredient it can be used.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
