\n\tWalaikumusalam<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t“Since neither Sex Reassignment Surgery nor hormone therapy genuinely transform a person into another sex, nor is such possible, a transgender individual who undergoes either or both procedures remains the same sex and the rulings of that sex continue to apply. <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tGiven that such a person outwardly resembles opposite sex, some rules based off precaution shall apply, the details of which fall outside the scope of this resolution and for which one may consult his\/her local Imam and scholars\u02be<\/em>.<\/em>”[1]<\/a> <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
