_Ruling on in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and Also Ruling on using eggs or sperm from someone other than the spouses in artificial insemination

THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 13th day of Shăbaan, 1440, (Friday, 19th April, 2019).
*_Ruling on in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and Also Ruling on using eggs or sperm from someone other than the spouses in artificial insemination_*. *BismilLah*.

The following rulings are from Scholars based on QUR'AN and SUNNAH so let's study them and accept it for ALLAH sake.

Undoubtedly children are one of the blessings and adornments of this world, and one of the greatest purposes of marriage is to produce offspring. A righteous child is a treasure for his or her parents in this world and in the Hereafter, and his righteous deeds will be recorded in the balance of his parents’ deeds. A man or a woman may be faced with lack of children or delay of having children. What they must do is be patient and seek reward, and say a lot of du’aa’ and prayers for forgiveness. They should understand that ALLAAH only decree things for a reason. If a person has available Islamically acceptable means of getting children, there is nothing wrong with his pursuing that. But the Muslim should beware of false ways involving sihr (witchcraft) and myths, and he should beware of doctors who do not fear ALLAH and whose main aim is to make money from those who want to have children. Hence some of them switch eggs or sperm. This is why some scholars have forbidden these methods of having children or have stipulated very strict conditions. ALLAH is the ONLY One who grant children to whom HE wishes. ALLAH has also stated clearly in the Qur'an that HE created some women barren as a test or trial and whoever passes this test will achieve what those with children may not be able to achieve so let's rely only on ALLAH through Dua and if he does not grant us children, our patience maybe enough to earn HIS Jannat which should be our priority than having children. Also note that as ALLAH says Children can be fitnah or a source of ALLAH'S punishment on Earth and on judgement day so why do we want to take even risk means to have children other than relying on ALLAH for pious offspring?. Its strictly forbidden and haraam to use any man's sperms who is not your husband for it but allowed for couple to do it through a doctor who can be trusted preferably a Muslim doctor full of eemaan.

A true story happened in Ghana not long ago which my Mrs narrated to me just few months ago. A wealthy married woman did all she can to conceive but could not and was growing old so someone advised her to perform hajj and pray to ALLAH sincerely by the Kaaba. She did exactly that but because ALLAH may have created her barren for good reasons or delayed her having her own children, ALLAH granted her a newly born baby someone threw away around her community which she took and adopted the legal means and now with a lovely baby to wipe her tears away atakbir!. ALLAH says HE is the best of planners so let's rely solely on HIM. 

Please remember today is Friday as such we should strive to perform all the sunnahs of today by going to masjid early, taken our ghusul, wearing nice clothes, reciting suuratul Kahf, sending lots of Salutations to our beloved messenger of ALLAH sallallahu alaihi wasallam etc. *_May ALLAH be pleased with us and forgive our ignorance_*. Aameen.

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will ...

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...

THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm athalaatha, 3rd day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Tuesday, 26th August 2025. *_THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF_*. BismilLah.  Islam encourages Muslims in general to stand out among people, readily distinguishable by their dress, appearance and behaviour, so that they will be a good example, worthy of the great message that they bring to humanity. According to the hadith narrated by the great Sahabi Ibn al-Hanzaliyyah, the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam ) told his Companions, when they were travelling to meet some brothers in faith: "You are going to visit your brothers, so repair your saddles and make sure that you are dressed well, so that you will stand out among people like an adornment, for ALLAH (SWT) does not love ugliness." Reported by Imam Abu Dawud, 4/83, in Kitab al-libas, bab ma ja'a fi isbal al-izar. The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) considered an unkempt and careless appearance, and scruffy clothes and furnishings, to be...
