Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The patient had abnormal pain during pregnancy and continuously complained to the doctor, doctor thought that it was related to pregnancy so didn’t give it much thought.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now they find out it’s stage 4 cancer.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Can they sue the doctor?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you feel that irresolvable damages have occurred due to the negligence on the part of the doctors, then Islam acknowledges the need for remuneration and compensation for the damages incurred. Thus, after seeking legal counsel, if you feel that this is an avenue which you wish to pursue, then Shariah has no objections. [Al-Hid\u0101yah; volume 3 page 191] [1]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I would also like to take this opportunity to remind myself and yourself of the following Hadith of our Beloved \ufdfa, \u201cNever a believer is stricken with a discomfort, hardship or illness, grief or even with mental worry that his sins are not expiated for him.\u201d [Sahih Al-Muslim; Hadith 2573] [2]<\/span><\/p>\n

Only Allah knows best.<\/span><\/p>\n
