Islamic Rulings (shar’i Rulings) On Organ Transplants by akinsmail51(op): 6:15am On Oct 26, 2024
With regard to Shar’i rulings:

1- It is permissible to transplant an organ from one place in a person’s body to another place in the same body, but attention must be paid to ensuring that the expected benefits outweigh any possible harm; that is subject to the condition that this is done to replace a lost organ or body part, or to restore its regular shape or function, or to correct a fault or remove a deformity that is causing the person psychological or physical harm.

2- It is permissible to transplant an organ from the body of one person to another if it is an organ that renews itself automatically, such as blood and skin. But attention must be paid to the condition that the donor be fully qualified and fulfil the shar’i conditions.

3- It is permissible to make use of organs that have been taken from the body of another person due to sickness, such as taking the cornea from the eye of a person whose eye has been removed due to sickness.

4- It is haram to transplant an organ on which life depends, such as transplanting the heart from a living person to another person.

5- It is haram to transplant an organ from a living person when its removal may cause an essential function to cease, even though his life does not depend on it, such as taking the corneas of both eyes. But if he will still have partial function after removing it, then the matter is subject to further discussion as we shall see below in section 8.

6- It is permissible to transplant an organ from a dead person to a living person whose life or basic essential functions depend on that organ, subject to the condition that permission be given by the deceased before his death, or by his heirs after his death, or by the authorities in charge of the Muslims if the identity of the deceased is unknown or he has no heirs.

7- It should be noted that the agreement on the permissibility of organ transplants explained above is subject to the condition that this is not done by selling the organs, because it is not permissible to subject human organs to sale under any circumstances.

As for the beneficiary spending money in order to obtain the required organ where necessary or offering compensation or honouring the donor, this is subject to ijtihad and further discussion.

8- All cases having to do with this topic are subject to further research and discussion, and they should be studied and discussed in a future session in light of medical data and shar’i rulings.

And Allah knows best.”

Forms of organ transplant
These kinds of benefits or use are divided into three categories:

(i)Transplant of organ from a living person

(ii)Transplant of organ from a dead person

(iii)Transplant from a foetus
Re: Islamic Rulings (shar’i Rulings) On Organ Transplants by akinsmail51(op): 6:18am On Oct 26, 2024
Transplant of organ from a living person

(i) This category includes the following:

1. Transplant of an organ from one place in the body to another place in the same body, such as transplanting skin, cartilage, bones, veins, blood and so on.

2. Transplant of an organ from the body of a living person to the body of another person.

Organs in this case may be divided into those on which life depends and those on which life does not depend. With regard to those on which life depends, they may be singular organs, of which there is only one in the body, or there may be more than one. The former includes organs such as the heart and liver, and the latter includes organs such as the kidneys and lungs.

As for those on which life does not depend, there are some that control basic functions in the body and some that do not. There are some that are renewed automatically, such as blood, and some that are not; there are some that have an effect on offspring and on the genetic makeup and personality of the individual, such as testicles, ovaries and cells of the nervous system, and some that do not have any such effect.

Transplant of an organ from a dead person

(ii) It may be noted that death falls into two categories:

1- Brain death in which all bodily functions cease completely and cannot be brought back medically.

2- Where the heart and breathing cease completely and cannot be brought back medically.

Both of these categories were discussed in the resolution passed by the Council in its third session.
Re: Islamic Rulings (shar’i Rulings) On Organ Transplants by akinsmail51(op): 6:19am On Oct 26, 2024
Transplant from a foetus

(iii) Use or benefits in this case fall into three categories:

1- Where the foetus is aborted spontaneously (miscarriage)

2- Where the foetus is aborted deliberately by medical or criminal means

3- Where fertilization is done outside the uterus.

In a Quran 5.32 whoever killd a person not in retaliation of murder and whoever saves life shall be given a reward as if he has save all mankind.

Based on this, most international scholar's in Islam have endorse organ donation and transplantation for the purpose of savings lives is welcome

You thought, good. That is beauty of Islam, its a distinct different that distance Islamic law in particular and religion in general from Christianity. From where did Christians derived law? Different and unified answers will be given.
Sources of Islamic law are Qur'an, Hadith, Ijma (Consensus of Islamic Jurists) and Qiyas (Analogical Deduction).

You did not answer my question.

Where did you get the opinion about organ donation from? The Quran or the Hadith? Or your Alfas have started receiving new revelations from Jibreel?

Didn't you think it's better than the religion of hated, killing, beheading, terrorism and total destruction

Quran 5:51

O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends one to another. He among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them. Lo! Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk


Quran 8:12

 I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have rejected; so strike above the necks, and strike from them every one standing."


Quran 9:29

Hasan Al-Fatih Qaribullah  

Fight those who neither believe in Allah nor the Last Day, who do not forbid what Allah and His Messenger have forbidden, and do not embrace the religion of the truth, being among those who have been given the Book (Bible and the Torah), until they pay tribute out of hand and have been humiliated



Quran 9:5

Then when the Sacred Months (the Ist, 7th, 11th, and 12th months of the Islamic calendar) have passed, then kill the Mushrikoon (Christians and Jews) wherever you find them, and capture them and besiege them, and prepare for them each and every ambush. But if they repent and perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat), and give Zakat, then leave their way free. Verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful
I don't and l will not have time for your bait to drag me into arguing. I talked of tithe, your response could have been appropriate if you prove that Christianity is not religion of financial exploitation of the Christians for the enormous wealth of church founders and poverty of church goers.

From the four sources l mentioned. Being enemy of Islam couple with ignorance about knowledge of Islam, you can't understand.

Antlislaam:
Arguing with you and your fellow slaves is like pouring water in a basket


I'm just opening wide your eye into the religion of hatred, killing of Christians and Jews that also love collecting Zakat which your rotted skull has failed to give reckon to before emphasizing on tithe
Bark it again and again till second coming of your Lord.
