Question

Are vaccines permissible?

Answer

In principle, it is permissible to be vaccinated on condition that the administered vaccine does not contain any impermissible ingredients, and that it is recommended by an upright Muslim doctor.

Queries with regard to the ingredients and contents should be directed to a reputable Halaal certification organization in your country of residence.

We are however not in a position to prescribe or discourage the administration of any vaccine.
