Eating testicles of animals

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Fatwa.org.au
Is it permissible to eat testicles of halal slaughtered animals? What about selling them?

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

_ It is makrooh tahreemi (i.e. prohibited) to eat the testicles of animals (even if the animals have been halal slaughtered). (Shaami: 6/749, Saeed)

Therefore, one must abstain from selling testicles on their own (i.e. separately).

And Allah knows best.
