Muslim views on infertility… 1. 3. 2. SOME MUSLIMS... If a couple are infertile they MUST NOT have infertility treatments. MOST MUSLIMS.. IVF treatment is acceptable as long as the egg and donor are from the married couple. SOME MUSLIMS... IVF with donors is allowed but the child does not have full legal rights. There are THREE main Muslim attitudes to infertility treatments... Decide whether the following statements are 1, 2 or 3 using your mini whiteboards. .
Muslim views on infertility… 1. SOME MUSLIMS... If a couple are infertile they MUST NOT have infertility treatments. Infertility is a disease so it is OK to find a cure. Having children helps to keep the couple and family together. Allah expects His creation to reproduce and start a family. If it is the will of Allah for the couple not to have children they should accept that. Children have the right to know their natural parents. The social status and self-esteem of a woman are related to her ability to have children. 2. MOST MUSLIMS.. IVF treatment is acceptable as long as the egg and donor are from the married couple. Allah has given humans the ability to create life in this way. Infertility is part of a test from Allah. Egg and sperm donation is allowed but the child produced cannot inherit from their biological parents. Shari’ah Law allows the extra embryos to be destroyed as they are not alive yet. Marriage is a contract between the wife and husband. There should be no third person involved. 3. SOME MUSLIMS... IVF with donors is allowed but the child does not have full legal rights. The use of sperm or eggs from another person is regarded as ADULTERY Donors must not be related to the parents wanting a child.
What organs can be donated? In 2007, 7234 people were on the waiting list for vital organ donations. However, in 2006 only 3000 transplants took place. In a survey, 90% of the public were in favour of transplant surgery yet less than 50% have registered. One third of families refuse to give permission for organs of deceased relatives to be used, even though the person has already signed the organ donation register. V’s
Christianity & Transplant Surgery Most Christians are supportive of transplant surgery because… Christians who believe in the immortality of the soul believe the body is not needed after death and so organs can be used to help the living. Jesus’ teaching of ‘Love your neighbour as yourself’ and the Golden Rule are both in keeping with the ideals of transplant surgery However, they would be against selling organs as this can lead to the exploitation of the poor (e.g. A father selling a kidney to feed his family). Use the picture clues to come up with the POINTS to finish both of these sentences. However, some Christians accept live transplants but not those from deceased donorsbecause… They would see the vital organs, particularly the heart, as part of God’s creation of the individual person and so should not be used. Humans do not have the right to act like God and using the organs of a dead person to give life to another is usurping the role of God for yourself. Using organs from living people does not affect the belief in the sanctity of life and so can be used to fulfil the teachings of Jesus in the Bible. However, they would be against selling organs as this can lead to medical assistance only available for the rich and not for the poor.
Muslim attitudes to transplant surgery... Transplant surgery may go against Allah’s plan. Giving away body parts is not allowed as the body is a GIFTfrom Allah. Only Allah can give life and take life away. IT GOES AGAINST TEACHINGS IN THE QUR’AN The body, including its organs, is holy and should not be interfered with. Organ donation delays burial. Use the picture clues to come up with the POINTS The Qur’an promotes the saving of a life and hold its in great esteem. Muslims should try to help EVERYONE. It prevents suffering – the necessity makes the unlawful lawful. Allah will reward Muslims who save people from death.
