The ruling on taking organs from a deceased person if he donated them before his death
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : It is not permissible to take an organ from a deceased person, even if he bequeathed it to me, even if he said, “O people, if I die, take my kidney or my eye or something similar.”
The Shaykh : This is the opinion; it must be respected, because it is not one hundred percent certain that it will succeed, and committing a definite harm is not permissible when there is only a possibility of benefit.
The questioner : How?
The Shaykh : It is known, because if he ate from it after he died, the pleasure would be certain and the necessity would be narrow.
