UAE Fatwa Council: Covid vaccine use allowed according to Islamic laws

The Council urges everyone to cooperate with governments to ensure the success of vaccination campaigns.
The UAE Fatwa Council, under the chairmanship of Shaykh Abdallah bin Bayyah, has issued a ‘fatwa’ (Islamic ruling) allowing the coronavirus vaccines to be used in compliance with Islamic Sharia’s objectives on the protection of the human body and other relevant Islamic rulings.

This comes in response to growing concerns among Muslims over the halal status of the Covid vaccines and following a request for an advisory opinion addressed by the Minister of Religious Affairs of Malaysia, to the UAE Fatwa Council on the same subject.

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at in the Era of COVID-19

During the COVID-19 pandemic, there have been episodes of intolerance towards the
Ahmadiyya community, particularly in Pakistan. However, in compliance with the Quranic precepts, the
Ahmadis have not responded with violence to the persecutions suffered. On the contrary, they have
carried out, thanks to the dynamism of their communities, numerous initiatives of solidarity with the
populations most affected by the pandemic. They have also spontaneously adopted COVID-19-safe
methods of worship, and thus have been able to limit the numbers of community members infected.
