There are eye drops that are made of plants mixed with a substance taken from a bear’s gallbladder. Is it permissible to use them?.
Praise be to Allah.
I asked our Shaykh ‘Abdul-Rahman al-Barrak about this and he replied:
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Allah does not put your healing in that which He has forbidden to you.” Narrated by al-Bayhaqi and classed as sahih by Ibn Hibban, from the hadith of Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her). So he should look for another remedy and in sha Allah he will find a permissible alternative.
Looking at the issue from another angle, if an impure or intoxicating substance is used as a component in something such as medicine etc and is completely absorbed so that none of the original substance remains in such a way that it can be distinguished by colour, taste or smell, then some of the fuqaha’ said that it is permissible to use it.
