Resolutions of Iftaa' Board

Resolution No.(166)(7/2011) by the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies:

"Ruling of Sharia on Donating Part of the Liver"

Date: 26/8/1432 AH, corresponding to 28/7/2011 AD.

 

 

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.

During its eleventh session held on the above given date, the Board reviewed the ruling on donating part of the liver and decided that it is permissible provided that the conditions of Sharia in this regard are met. Rather, the Board is of the view that whoever does this out of kindness towards a patient, who is really in need for it, will be rewarded by Allah. Allah, The Almighty, Says (what means): "and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people." {Al-Mai`dah/32}.

The conditions of Sharia as far as this issue is concerned are as  follows:

1- The donor should be a responsible person.

2- Taking this part from the donor`s liver doesn`t inflict any harm on his life since the Sharia maxim in this regard reads: (Harm shouldn`t be eliminated  by inflicting reciprocal harm). Therefore, it is imperative to consult specialized expert doctors at each case.

3- It is donated out of charity, not in exchange for a material profit.

4- Transplanting this part of the liver is the only medical means to cure the patient.

5- The operation is most likely to be a success. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

 By slip of the tongue, my son cursed Allah. It is worth pointing that he has concluded his marriage contract recently, but haven`t consummated the marriage. What is the position of Sharia on this? 

All perfect praise be to AllahThe Lord of The Worlds and may His Peace and Blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all of his family and companions. 
This person must return to the fold of Islam by uttering the two testimonies of faith and making repentance to Allah from all acts that lead to disbelief. Also, he must make a new marriage contract because the old one was dissolved after he had committed this act of disbelief. Moreover, since there is no waiting period for his wife, then she is in state of Talaq ba`en baynona Soghra (Minor irrevocable divorce); consequently, she can get back to him only by a new marriage contract. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best. 

Is it permissible for the woman to use her mobile phone while on the street?

All Perfect Praise is due to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds 

Modesty should be observed by the woman at all times, so she is free to use her phone while on the street as long as it is done within the limits of Islamic manners. And Allah The Almigty Knows Best.

Is my husband entitled to take my salary?

Your salary is yours, and you may give some of it to him as a kind of free-will contribution.

 If a disposable water bottle has the logo (Al-Aziz Water Shop) ,is it allowed to throw it away considering that (Al-Aziz) is one of Allah`s beautiful names?

All perfect praise be to Allah the Lord of the Worlds. May His peace and blessings be upon Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.
You can remove some of the letters so that the word isn`t read as (Al-Aziz). And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.
