What can you say about Organ Donation?

Recently when I went to a mall I saw a booth at the center aisle about organ donation. I didn't bother to ask or even inquire because I am not sure if I have to.

What's your personal views/religious views about organ donation?

 

Organ donation is the harvesting of an individual's organs after he or she dies for the purpose of transplanting them into another person. Although not as common, certain organs can be removed from a living person and transplanted in another to save or enhance his or her life. In either case, permission from the individual or immediate family is needed to proceed with this procedure. And Yes for me Organ donations can mean a second chance at life and it can mean actually being able to live which you can help others..

 

Organ donation is giving an organ to help someone who needs a transplant.

Making a donation is your choice. But it can be seen differently even in the same religious groups.

Religious views on organ donation

In Islam there are two schools of thought on organ donation:

The human body, living or dead, enjoys a special honour and is inviolable. Islamic law emphasises preserving human life.

The general rule

The general rule that ‘necessities permit the prohibited’ (al-darurat tubih al-mahzurat), has been used to support human organ donation to save or significantly enhancing a life of another provided the benefit outweighs the personal cost borne.
