Question
A man undergoes a complete sex-change. Medically he is transformed into a female although he was born a male. Shall such a person who has been completely transformed into a female be classified a woman by the Shariah? Will the laws pertaining to females apply?
Answer
This shaitaan remains a male in terms of the Shariah. The artificial change effected by the satanic medical process does not change the designation Allah Ta'ala had decreed for the person. All the rules of males remain applicable to this person.
