Summary
Drinking camel urine without a medical purpose is prohibited by default. Using it as medicine is regarded as permissible according to the preferred view, but only after advice from a qualified medical specialist and pharmacist. Drinking milk mixed with camel urine without a medical purpose is also prohibited because of the risk of infection such as the MERS-CoV virus, in line with the Malaysian Ministry of Health directive.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
