Body lotions containing animal fat

Question

Are we allowed to use body lotions with animal fat?

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

Using body lotions containing animal fat is permissible if the animal is one that we are permitted to eat and has been slaughtered properly according to sharee’ah. Otherwise it is not permitted.
