Collagen is halal for Shia only if it comes from a source that is permissible according to Islamic law. This means that the animal from which the collagen is extracted must have been slaughtered according to Islamic ritual, known as Zabiha.
Here are the key points to consider:
- Fish collagen is considered halal.
- Collagen from animals that are not slaughtered according to Islamic law, such as pigs or cows not slaughtered with Zabiha, is considered haram.
- Collagen from animals that are slaughtered according to Islamic law (Zabiha) is considered halal.
- If the origin of the collagen is unclear, then it is permissible to consume it if there is doubt.
It is important to check the ingredients list of collagen products to ensure that the source is halal and that the product has been certified halal by a reputable organization.
