Answered by Ustadh Salman Younas

Question: Some recipes ask for unlaid eggs(that have been taken from a slaughtered hen). Would such eggs be halal in general or only from a zabiha chicken?

Answer:

assalamu `alaykum

An unlaid egg from a chicken that has not been properly slaughtered is permissible to eat according to the relied-upon position of the Hanafi school. [Sarakhi, al-Mabsut; Ibn `Abidin, Hashiya]
