Peace be upon you. He says: Honorable Shaykh, one day an elderly man asked me, saying that he had heard that organ transplantation is a form of adultery. So he asked, "Does this not fall under adultery?" When I was unable to give him a good answer...
Answer:
How is it like adultery? This is a treatment, this is a treatment, or is it like adultery? The one who says this is ignorant. The one who considers this to be adultery does not know what adultery is. This is a treatment, like all other types of treatment. Yes.
