Assalāmu ῾alaykum wa Rahmatullāhi Wabarakātuh
 
Every part/limb of a human body is sacred, irrespective whether he is dead or alive.  This will apply to the body of Muslims and non Muslims.
“The body of a human is sanctified in Shariah, even though it may be that of a Kaafir”
(Raddul Muhtar, Vol. 5, P. 58, HM Saeed)^[1]
