Seestani to which the reply was kindly obtained by Ma'alim Hasnain
Kassamali during his visit to Iraq for Arba`een. Our apologies for the

 Jazakallah

Question:
 Q. Is it permissible to sell or donate a part of a Muslims's body to a Kafir 
(as
 per Ayat. Seestani)?

Answer: 
 A. A living Muslim can donate some of his body parts to others whether to a
 Muslim or to a Kafir. He can also  take money for the exchange of the parts
 with a condtion that there will not be a severe harm to the donor. As for
 the Muslim corpse it is not allowed to cut any of his body parts for
 patching a Kafir's body.
