Bone broth

Q: I am researching the use of bone broth and I need to know if is permissible. It is a soup type of dish which is jelly in form after many hours of boiling and also a type of gelatin. If so, are all parts of the bones permissible for use, particularly bone marrow? (except the organs from which we are forbidden to use and eat). It is used for stomach lining healing.

A: Our ulama have declared these types of products as haraam if the bone was from a haraam animal.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
