The Ruling on Selling Organs and Donating Them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Shaykh, is it permissible for a person to sell one of his kidneys, and is it permissible to donate them?
The Shaykh:
As for selling, no, it is not permissible for a person to sell any of his organs, neither the kidney nor the cornea nor any of his organs, or his blood, or any of his blood to sell; it is not permissible. As for donating something of his organs, this is permissible on the condition that he does not harm himself by having this organ taken from him, because harm is not removed by harm. But if he does not suffer harm and it does not affect his health, then it is permissible for him to donate to the one afflicted with a kidney problem, or something that does not harm his body, because this falls under the category of assistance and support.
The questioner:
Hmm?
The Shaykh:
He does not take it because this becomes a sale, since he offers his blood or offers something for the sake of a reward. Do you know that whoever offers a reward and does not offer his blood except for its sake, it becomes a sale, which is not permissible.
The questioner:
He informed us that it should be with one who is protected.
The Shaykh:
If they give it to him from their own resources, he has the choice: if he wishes, he will treat it, and if he wishes, he will not treat it. It is better that he does not treat it. Yes.
