Question and answer [link]
Question 71
Is genetic engineering of plants, animals, fungi and bacteria through biotechnology permissible? From earlier answers I understood that eating genetically modified food is not forbidden, but I want to know whether genetic modification counts as changing God's creation and is therefore forbidden.
Ahmed al-Hasan Response:
It is permissible to modify the genes of plants and animals, and even human genes, so long as this does not go outside the general ethical and legal limits. These bodies are merely tools used by our souls for the test in this physical world.
