The Ruling on In Vitro Fertilization for Those Who Have Been Delayed in Having Children

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I have been married for eight years and have not been blessed with children. After the examinations, the doctor said that in vitro fertilization is necessary. What is your opinion?

Answer:
May Allah make you independent of this. Marry a second woman. Seek treatment. Allah did not send down a disease except that He sent down a cure for it. If it is established that you are sterile and have no offspring, then be patient. Praise be to Allah in all circumstances.
and He renders whom He wills barrenوَيَجْعَلُ مَن يَشَاءُ عَقِيمًا
[Ash-Shuraa 42:50]
And you do not know what is good; you do not know what is good.
But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for youوَعَسَىٰ أَن تَكْرَهُوا شَيْئًا وَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ
[Al-Baqarah 2:216]

May Allah reward you
