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.
