Summary
The use or administration of the Menactra vaccine is declared permissible. The ruling rests on the finding that the vaccine has no raw material components from animal sources or ingredients doubtful from the Shariah perspective. It also does not share processing lines with non-halal vaccine products.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Oleh itu penggunaan atau pengambilan Vaksin Menactra9 adalah diharuskan.
