IVF treatment

Submitted by user2 on Sun, 2019-09-01 08:36

Q: Me and my wife have been married for 7 years now Alhamdulillah, but unfortunately we have no children.

We are speaking to ivf specialists and when we asked about being able to see a female specialist during the egg collection and embryo implant procedure we were told that this is not possible and we will be seen by whoever is available on the day, male or female.

What is the ruling regarding this under Islamic law. I have been getting mixed responses from family and friends. Some people have told me because it is medical reason it is allowed while others say it is haram as the awrah (privates) is exposed to a non mahram (potentially male) and not a necessity.

Please can you elaborate on the conditions that would make ivf between husband and wife, halal or haram.

Q: I drank 2 small sips of beer that contains 6 or 8 % of alcohol but I didn’t feel any type of difference in my body. Everything was normal and no intoxication and nothing different in my behaviour.

My question is, can I go for payers to the mosque or I’m not allowed to enter the mosque for 40 days?

Writing a bad review about someone

Submitted by user2 on Thu, 2019-08-22 08:54

Q: I have a question about online reviews. I had a bad experience with one of the local Muslim mechanics. The brother fixed 2 problems in my car and after a few days both problems came back. I went to him again and he did something and it came back again. He also charged me just like any other non-Muslim mechanic in town. I thought it is just a bad experience with me and I just lived with the problem because whenever I took the car to him he keeps the car for few days and it is very inconvenient for me without a car.

I took my other car to the same mechanic because he is Muslim and I try to promote Muslim businesses then he fixes a few things in my other car and the same thing happened to this car as well. He replaces the compressor of the AC and when I tried it in summer it worked for only a few days.

I wanted to write a review about him online so others are aware of this before going there but I wanted to ask the question before writing a bad online review. (Does Muslim or non-Muslim matters in this case)
