It is not only the Muslims, even Hindus and Jews have raised questions about the use of the Covid-19 vaccine, due to prohibited substances in its composition.
Even before the Covid-19 vaccination process starts in India. The Indian Muslims have courted another controversy. The question is whether they’ll be amenable to get vaccinated or not, as there are reports that the proposed vaccines may not be halal as per the Islamic dietary laws.
Muslims, Jews and even Hindus have questioned the composition of the proposed vaccines developed by Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca and Bharat Biotech’s Covaxin. Even as India is scrambling to start the coronavirus vaccination drive, Muslims have raised concern over the use of pork products forbidden in Islam and Judaism, while the Hindus have questioned the inclusion of cow blood in the vaccine.
