Irsyad P3: Halal | COVID-19 Vaccine Forum (#6)

The COVID-19 vaccines are made with synthetic ingredients, and therefore, there are no issues with the permissibility of the vaccines in this regard.

Ustaz Fathurrahman Dawoed explains that even in the event that there should be any haram ingredients, there are other concepts in Islam such as istihalah, istihlak and darurat that can be applied. He provides examples of hadiths where the companions sought treatment from what was haram.
