Since these are new issues, Muslim physicians, have dire need for recommendations from the guiding principles of Qur’ān, the tradition of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) (Qur’ān 33:36) and opinions of past and contemporary Muslim scholars. Thus, IMANA decided to make position papers which will be available to those who seek our positio opinion in order to and pursue further reading on their own. The position papers are only suggestions on behalf of IMANA and are not to be considered Fatwa(s) (religious decree) which has a legal religious binding. The members of ethics committee are not in a position to issue a Fatwa on any of the issues which we are writing on behalf of IMANA. However, from time to time, on a need basis, we do consult Muslim scholars to have for their opinion. The position papers will be revised from time to time as new questions arise from advances in medical technology. These position papers are are and will be available to be read and downloaded from internet at www.imana.org at no cost.
