Islam is a religion of ease and not hardship. It is the religion which propels people to do good things to others and themselves. It elucidated every single issue in human beings life with wisdom. In this paragraph Islam’s view about organ donation will be clarified. Islam has propelled all human beings to take care of their bodies, use them in a right way, & not impose harm upon it. What’s more important is that people are not allowed to sell or buy human organs according to Islam’s rules. Yet, organs can be used to save other human’s life, especially those who upon death. In addition, Islam states that this donation is like using the blessings of Allah in the best way possible, since it saves many people lives. Pledging to donate …show more content…

finally, the transportation should be in a specialized medical center which is authorized by the state and no financial exchange should include between the parties (Israel Ministry of health, n.d.). Islam forbids to violate the holiness of the dead, as has been explained by the prophet: “Breaking the bones of a corpse, is similar to breaking the bones of someone who is alive” ( Hadith narrated by ibn majah). This hadith shows that the same respect accorded to someone who is alive has to be accorded to someone who is dead. The hadith also forbids mutilating the corpse as was practiced in the pre-Islamic era. However, Islam allows doing operation on a corpse in some cases but not for organ donation. All in all, it is true that Islam allows this type of donating, but it also wants people to believe in fate and fortune by Allah, plus that everything happens to a person is god’s will. Even though we believe that god grants and measures out his blessings upon us, we are required to work for our daily bread. Islam creed teaches people to find cure for their illness, and leave the last success or otherwise to god. As the holy prophet says: “Allah has given a cure for all illnesses.” (Hadith narrated by al-Bukhari) (Islamic religious Council of Singapore,

    In 2017, 510 people deceased donors donated their organs, saving over 1,400 people, and giving them the gift of organ donation. In 2017. ‘The most important thing that helps a family's decision is their knowing the donation decision of their loved one' (Donate Life, 2017) only 60% of Australians discuss their wishes for organ donation with their family, meaning the other 40% of Australian families are more than likely to decline organ donation, this is one of the biggest barriers for Australian organ donation. Also, during a conducted survey between the year 12 health class and other students, within figure 1, it can be shown that only 13.4% of people were registered to become an organ donor in Australia, compared to Australia's 76% (Transplant Australia, 2016). Furthermore, 40% of Australians don’t know if their religion supports organ and tissue donation, and 20% of families that declined donation in 2014 did so out of religious or cultural concerns, this amount is huge, if people who were educated in whether or not their religion accepts organ donation, a whole 20% of families would allow their loved one to proceed with organ and tissue transplantation, this barrier is one of the largest ones to date.

    The arguments for and against donation of organs to illegal immigrants are tough to stomach for both sides because one way or another the person not getting the donation can die. There is also the financial side of it, where illegal immigrants must secure donations in order to afford it, there are a couple examples in the book that shows the need for money in order to get donated to as an illegal. The first is the son of a butcher, Leonardo Sanchez, who needed $250,000 in order to get a transplant, so his father brought him to the U.S. in order to receive treatment(Chavez,115). Another case about Edgar Gutierrez shows that money is a necessity in order to receive a organ donation as he got financial backing from a CNN executive and a retired pilot(Chavez,115). Something that I feel isn’t realized when people donate to causes like these, is that their donations are providing someone who isn’t a citizen to receive an organ that could and most likely would have gone to a U.S. citizen.

    The idea of needing informed consent is really a basic idea when it comes to the ethics behind donating, but the idea that’s really surprising is that “…the Common Rule doesn’t actually govern most tissue research” (Skloot, 2010).This is surprising because the rule is supposed to be there and be enforced and since it is not enforced many people may have their rights violated. The other ideas of the HIPPA regulations and other consent precautions may help to deter the violation of rights; however there are still many issues that are widely disputed such as the family changing their mind after their loved one has past and whether or not that’s admissible. The other idea of money is also very prevalent issue because the commercialization off of donated materials can be considered unethical. If you look at patients who decide to donate their body to science they looked to make medical advancements possible. A profit made off donated tissue can in a sense be compared to companies earning a profit over the goods that are donated.
