I was reading this question about the permissibility of Organ donation in Islam. The answer is very detailed and helpful. So it got me thinking about whether a non-Muslim, say a Hindu or a Jew, can donate an organ to a Muslim.

Does the faith of the donor makes any difference in the permissibility of the donation/transplant?

Thank you.

A non-Muslim can donate an organ to a Muslim. Pay attention some of non-Muslims are kafir and they are unclean (najis), in this situation donation is allowed,too If the life of Muslim be in danger.

When the organ is exited from non-Muslim 's body, It becomes clean and can transplanted to Muslim 's body, and while Muslim 's blood circulates in organ, It becomes a part of Muslim 's body.

This organ doesn't need wergild but if it is possible It 's better to get the satisfaction of avenger of blood.(Ayatollah noori hamedani,Q:1006)

No, the faith of the donor doesn't make a difference at all. There's no evidence to say that a person being a disbeliever is considered "different" in regards to body from a believer.

What differs is the belief system but we all have the same organs.
