Question:

ASSALAMU'ALIALAIKUM. Is it allowed to drink hen's egg in islam? I MEAN RAW EGG

Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His Slave and Messenger.

 

It is permissible to drink raw chicken eggs, provided that they have not transformed from their original condition into blood and the like which is called the rotten eggs.

Scholars held different opinions regarding the permissibility of the egg of Jallaalah which is the poultry fed mostly with impurities.

The preponderant opinion is that it is lawful based on the original ruling (of permissibility) because there is no text that diverts away from it.

Allaah Knows best.
