Aslam

Praise be to Allah.

Shaykh Ibn Baaz (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked about that and he

said:

“I do not know of any reason not to do that, because Allaah says in His Book

(interpretation of the meaning):

“Allaah does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who

fought not against you on account of religion nor drove you out of your

homes”

[al-Mumtahanah 60:8]

So Allaah tells us that He does not

forbid us to deal justly and kindly with those kaafirs who are not fighting

us and who have not driven us out of our homes, or with those who are in

urgent need of help. The mother of Asmaa’ bint Abi Bakr al-Siddeeq (may

Allaah be pleased with her) came to her daughter in Madeenah, at the time of

the peace treaty between the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be

upon him) and the people of Makkah, and she was still a kaafir, to ask her

to uphold the ties of kinship. Asmaa’ consulted the Prophet (peace and

blessings of Allaah be upon him) and he told her to uphold the ties of

kinship, saying, “Uphold the ties of kinship with your mother even though

she is a kaafir.”

If a kaafir who has a peace treaty with the Muslims or is under the

protection of the Muslims, and is not hostile towards Islam and is not in a

state of war with us is in urgent need, then there is nothing wrong with

giving blood to him. You will be rewarded for that, because there is nothing

wrong with you helping one who is in urgent need of charity or help.

From Kitaab Fataawa Noor ‘ala al-Darb, vol. 1, p. 376

Based on the above, if the kaafir is

hostile or in a state of war with the Muslims, then it is not permissible to

give him blood, because by doing so you are helping him in his aggression

against the Muslims. This is a very serious matter. We ask Allaah to keep us

safe and sound.
