\n\tAssalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWe understand that surrogate motherhood is impermissible in Islam. However, would it still be the case if it was between two wives in a polygamous relationship? e.g Wife 1 has an egg but is unable to conceive, <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWife 2 – can carry a baby to term, the husband fertilises the egg from wife 1 and asks wife 2 to carry it, for wife 1 as she is unable to. Would this type of IVF Surrogate Motherhood be permissible?<\/span><\/span>

\n\tAssalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaatuh<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tSurrogate motherhood has posed many difficult questions upon Islam in recent years. The Council of the Islamic Fiqh Academy reviewed the different angles and facets of surrogate motherhood in-depth, by consulting physicians and scholars on the matter.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThey concluded that there are seven known ways for artificial insemination whereby the first five of them are prohibited according to the Shariah and the last two are permissible.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t1.    The fertilization taking place between the sperm taken from the husband and the eggs taken from a woman who is not his wife, and then the fertilized ovum being implanted into the womb of his wife.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t2.    The fertilization taking place between the sperm taken from a man who is not the husband and the eggs taken from the wife, and then the fertilized ovum being implanted into the womb of the wife.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t3.    The fertilization taking place in-vitro between the sperm and the eggs taken from the spouses, and then the fertilized ovum being implanted into the womb of a volunteer woman (i.e. surrogate motherhood).<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t4.    The fertilization taking place in-vitro between the sperm of a man and eggs of a woman who <\/span><\/span>are<\/span><\/span> both strangers to one another, and then the fertilized ovum <\/span><\/span>being<\/span><\/span> implanted into the womb of another man’s wife.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t5.    The fertilization taking place in-vitro between the sperm and the eggs taken from the spouses, and then the fertilized ovum is implanted into the womb of the husband’s other wife.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t6.    The sperm of the husband and the eggs of the wife are taken and fertilized in-vitro, and then the fertilized ovum is implanted into the womb of the wife.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t<\/a>7.    Artificial insemination, by taking the sperm of the husband and inserting it in the appropriate place of his wife’s womb, for fertilization.[1]<\/sup><\/sup><\/a><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
