Blood clot in an egg
Question
Does the clot found in an egg have to be removed before consuming it?
Answer
We have not found a clear answer on this, however if a clot of blood comes out of a human being, then it is not regarded as impure. Hence based on this we will say that the clot of blood found in an egg will also not be impure though it should be removed before consuming the egg. Please refer this question to other Ulama' as well.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
