Qaradawi Calls On Ending Female Circumcision, Considers It
Banned In Islamic Law
Muslim World News Updates
24 March 2009
President of the International
Union for Muslim Scholars Dr. Yusuf Al-Qaradawi
affirmed in a fatwa (an Islamic edict) published on
his website the absence of any legal evidence in the
Islamic religion which obliges female circumcision or
makes it a preferable act adding that if a certain
action is proven by specialists to cause harmful
results stopping this act would be obliged in order to
block any route to corruption and to prevent harm.
In this case, specialists found that circumcision in
its current form harms females physically and
psychologically as it negatively affects their marital
life, therefore Al-Qaradawi considered the conduction
of a circumcision surgery banned according to Islamic
law.
On the other hand, Al-Qaradawi supported the stance of
Azhar Sheikhs and Scholars concerning organ
transplantation affirming that Saudi Arabia which is
considered “rigid in Islamic jurisprudence and usually
goes with the literal meaning of Islamic text permits
organ transplantation,” adding, “Although the human’s
body belongs to Allah, Allah has delegated authority
over this body to the human to enable him to take care
of it and did not prohibit blood donations.”
Al-Qaradawi also permitted organ transplants from
living to living beings provided that it be in the
form of a donation as a donation is considered a
charity and provided that the organ not be single such
as the kidney or heart or one which the human can do
without.
Similarly, the donation of reproductive organs even
after the death of a person is not permitted as it
continues to carry genetic “codes” while the
transplantation of a dead person’s organs is permitted
only after the death of the brain’s stem when return
to life becomes no longer possible.
