Furthermore, when blood is removed from the body it becomes impure. [1] Therefore, the general principle would be that donating blood or accepting blood transfusions would be impermissible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">However, in modern medicine, blood and blood products are essential in saving lives and reducing mortality and morbidity from a whole range of medical ailments. Modern-day health care systems require regular blood donations from healthy donors to meet the necessary demand. The regenerating nature of blood is similar to breastmilk which has been discussed as becoming permissible to use as a medicine when there is a need and high probability of cure. [2] Therefore, based on the dire need for people of all backgrounds to donate blood scholars have applied important Fiqhi principles, such as \u201cNecessities make permissible the prohibited\u201d, to the issue of donating blood and permitted it as long as the donor is not putting themselves at harm and they are donating it of their own free will. [3]<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">A person\u2019s intention should be to assist those in need and gain reward from Allah Azzawajjal by doing so, for Allah Ta\u2019ala states in the Qur\u2019an \u201cWhoever saves the life of a person is as if he has saved the life of the whole of humankind.\u201d [5: 32] And the ultimate cure is only from Allah Ta\u2019ala.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;
