The hide of a dead animal is purified via true tanning. This can be achieved by using

karad'h or the hide may be tanned by something that has the same legal status astrue tanning, such as cleansing the hide with soil or placing it in the sun.

The hide of a pig however, does not become pure by any means of tanning.

The same applies to the skin of a human.

  

  

The hide of an animal whose meat is unlawful is purified if it is slaughtered in

accordance with Islamic law, whilst the meat remains unlawful, and this is thecorrect view which the fatwa coincides with.

All other parts of the animal which blood does not flow through is regarded as puresuch as the hair and feathers that have separated from the animal, including the

horns, hoofs and bones that contain no fatty grease. However, the nerves are

impure according to the soundest view.

  

Also, the skin that contains the musk is pure including the musk itself and it is

permissible to eat.

Civet is deemed pure. It is permitted for one to pray whilst he is perfumed in it.
