كتاب قضايا طبية معاصرة في الفقه الإسلامي Contemporary Medical Issues In Islamic Jurisprudence

وصف الكتاب

The spectacular advancement of medical sciences in the recent past has raised the levels of quality, health, hygiene, expectancy of life and general wholesomeness of people to the hitherto unknown heights. It is natural to expect that, with the advent of new century and of course new millennium, this progress will remain even more splendid.

The multiple impact of science and technology, sociopolitical concepts, formation of mass society, globalisation of trade and culture, professionalism, significance of health and hygiene, and some other crucial factors lead this trend. There can be no denial that biochemistry, biomedicine, genetic engineering, biomedical technology, etc. will constitute a very core sector of future human developments.

However, this unprecedented progress of biomedicine and allied sciences has opened a floodgate of several issues due to political, social, moral and religions bearings of some of the recent developments. And, these issues provide a strong impetus for the contemporary debates, not only in the so-called developing and under-developed countries, which remain more or less passive receivers of the fruits modernity, but also in the West, from where they have actually germinated.

Controversies pertaining to abortion, birth control, transplantation of organs, eugenics, mercy killing, gene mapping, socio-biology, search for immortality, test tube babies, sperm banking, hiring of womb, cloning and so forth have perplexed the modern mind. Positions are being taken on all these issues on the basis of arguments ranging from political to religions and from moral to pragmatic.

This book covers most of the points mentioned previously, in addition to many other events have only proved veracity of the Islamic view point since publication of the first editions of this book in April 2001. The increasing frauds in the claims of human cloning, building world opinion against some of the fruits of gene engineering, heightening misuse of sonography in the detection and killing of female foetus leading to alarming reduction of sex ratio in many parts of the world, pouring records of side effects of many contraceptive techniques negative birth rates in a number of European countries mainly caused by aversion to procreative gal of conjugal relation and so on have made it clear that imbalanced and immature human thought can only lead mankind to miseries of unknown nature and at times of uncontrollable consequence. It is regretted that some inadvertent proof mistakes have crept in the first edition, which have been removed now.

Moreover at places some linguistic changes have also been done to convey the idea in a better way. It is hoped that the readers will find the present edition lucid, informative and thought provoking towards building a deeper Islamic understanding on contemporary issues appertained to medical issues.
