Summary
A goat raised on dog's milk falls under the category of al-Jallalah animals. Eating its meat and drinking its milk is considered makruh, following the preferred Shafii view of Imam Nawawi, while some scholars of the school hold it to be haram. The makruh ruling no longer applies if the animal is quarantined and fed clean food until the odour of impurity disappears. The fatwa recommends quarantine first as a precaution and to avoid the disagreement.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
kami berpendapat bahawa kambing yang telah disusukan oleh anjing adalah termasuk di dalam kategori al-Jallalah dan hukum memakan dagingnya serta minum susunya adalah makruh.
