Question

Sometimes the boiled eggs which I eat have some spots on the shell I don't know if it is blood or not or is it a speckled egg and even if it is blood I remove the shell without that marks getting onto my hands and the egg inside is free of blood and I eat it. Can these type of eggs be eaten?

Answer

Yes

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