Pearl of Wisdom

' afwan b. Yahya and I visited al-Rida (AS), and Abu Ja'far [Imam al-Jawad], who was three years old, was standing there. We asked him [i.e. al-Rida], may Allah sacrifice us for you. If -God forbid something happened to you, who will be [the Imam] after you?' He said, 'This son of mine', pointing towards him. We asked, 'While he is still this young?' He replied, 'Of course while he is still this young. Verily Allah, Blessed and most High, made Jesus His divine proof [on earth] when he was just two years old.'

Question : #257 Category: Medical Issues
Subject: transplant of animal organs
Question: Is it allowed to transplant animals organs — be it of a religiously non-edible, a religiously edible or inherently najis animal — into a human body?
Answer: There is no objection to that, but to pray with it is problematic unless it is among the living parts that restore their life upon transplantation into the human body and are rendered as part of it. In this regard, the type of the animal makes no difference, i.e. it covers even the religiously non-edible ones.
