Organ Donation in Islam: The Interplay of Jurisprudence, Ethics,
and Society delves into the complexities and nuances of organ
donation in Muslim communities. A diverse group of authors
including Muslim jurists, academic researchers, clinicians and
policy stakeholders engage with the multi-faceted topic.
Contributions from Sunni and Shia scholars are positioned alongside
each other, giving the reader an appreciation of the different
Islamic traditions and legal methodologies; and qualitative
research examining the views and potential concerns of Muslim
families towards donating organs of loved ones is juxtaposed with
the work of academicians and community advocates engaging diverse
Muslim communities to equip them with the knowledge and tools to
make informed donation decisions. Taken together the collection
yields new ethical, empirical and sociological insights into how
issues of body ownership, the definition of death, and community
engagement interface with the act of donation. Accordingly, this
wide-ranging volume represents a invaluable resource for religious
leaders, healthcare professionals, social scientists, policy
makers, researchers, and others interested in the interplay between
contemporary healthcare, religious tradition, health policy and the
topic of organ donation.
