Is it permissible to eat the testicles of a beast of cattle?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The testicles of an animal are disliked (makruh tanzih), not forbidden (haram). Whatever animal's meat is permissible, its testicles are permissible. And whatever animal's meat is forbidden, its testicles are forbidden. They are disliked because they are among the things that souls find repulsive.
