Sheep and Beef Casings

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: It has come to my attention that a Mufti from abroad has declared the sheep and beef casings (intestines) that we use in the manufacture of sausages and wors as Haraam due to the fact that Najis passes through the casing (intestine) when the animal is alive. Please comment.

Sheep and Beef Casings

A: If the casing has been thoroughly cleaned and washed out and the traces of the impurities have been removed all together, the casing will be paak.

فالذي يحرم أكله منه سبعة الدم المسفوح والذكر والأنثيان والقبل والغدة والمثانة والمرارة لقوله عز شأنه ويحل لهم الطيبات ويحرم عليهم الخبائث وهذه الأشياء السبعة مما تستخبثه الطباع السليمة فكانت محرمة (بدائع الصنائع 5/61, الفتاوى الهندية 5/290, رد المحتار 6/311)
