The stand of Islam on flying saucers
Fatwa No: 97243

Question

What is flying saucer with respect to islam? It was seen in America and other parts of the world few years back. Who were them? Is there anything mentioned about them in Quran or Hadith by our beloved Prophet Sallahalahu alayhi vasallam.

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 is His slave and Messenger.

 

The Fatwa centre is focused on answering the questions which benefit the Muslims in their religion, like matters of belief, acts of worship, morals, transactions and dealings between people. We do not concern ourselves with answering questions about astrology and the like.

We heard about the flying saucers in the same way you heard about them. If we presume that they exist, they are just creatures among the creatures which Allaah created in this vast universe, and there is no need for a Muslim to preoccupy himself with such matters the knowledge of which does not necessitate any action, and there is no need to investigate who were inside them.

Allaah Knows best.
