| description | Modern advances in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology, genetics, biomedical engineering and
material sciences, have contributed to the development of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
(TERM). Although TERM is still in its initial phases, significant breakthrough in this cross- disciplinary area
has clearly marked the way for the establishment of a promising new biomedicine technology which actively
seeks to reconstruct tissues/organs or spare parts for the human body to repair, restore or replace damaged
tissues. However, these breakthroughs have raised number of moral and legal questions, including among
others, is it moral to genetically modify the human genes? What are the moral and legal implications of
regenerative medicine? Does organ reconstruction or tissue replacement activity violate basic religious beliefs
or legal status of the person? Through textual and analytical methods, this paper aims to explore relevant
concerns from t he Islamic perspective. Besides the texts of the Qur’an and the Prophetic narrations
(hadith), both Muslim jurists (fuqaha) and ethicists’ opinion on these matters would be unveiled. |
