Summary
The 74th Muzakarah of the National Fatwa Committee (2006) ruled that cosmetic products containing impure substances, including parts or derivatives of animals forbidden for consumption, are prohibited for use. The same applies to products that cause harm to humans. The decision also states that products from animals lawful to eat are likewise prohibited if they cause harm.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
sebarang produk kosmetik atau sebagainya yang mengandungi bahan najis seperti anggota atau unsur haiwan yang haram dimakan atau yang memberi kemudharatan kepada manusia adalah haram digunakan.
