Dear respected Mufti Sahib I hope and pray this email reaches you in the best of health spiritually and physically. I have two question which need answering , I hope you will be able to assist me in this may Allah give you success ameen.
Question One: The son of a freind suffers from Autism; the son is aged approximately 7 years old. Doctors prescribe a medicine by the name of SECRETINE which is made from PIG. Secretine has a history of curing autism and in the least medically improves the condition of autism. One could assume there is a 50%-80% success rate.
My friend will not allow his son to take the medication on religious grounds as the medicine is made from swine. My question is in Shariah is it permissible to use SECRETINE to cure autism? Is there any particular medicine or form of alternative medicine one could use to cure autism which you are aware of?
