“Indeed, We sent Our messengers with clear proofs, and with them We sent down the Scripture and the balance ˹of justice˺ so that people may administer justice….”
Qur’an [Al-Hadid 57:25]
Uncover the ethical guidelines set forth by Islamic teachings in medical research, clinical trials, and healthcare delivery. We explore the ethical responsibilities of healthcare professionals and researchers through an Islamic lens. We host and facilitate educational initiatives for members throughout the year, including conferences, lectures, workshops and research opportunities.
Modern medicine continues to raise important ethical questions for healthcare professionals. Through this seminar series, participants will explore these issues from an Islamic perspective, with topics including medical assistance in dying (MAID), end-of-life care, organ donation, reproductive health, emerging medical technologies, and more. Each seminar combines Islamic scholarship with clinical expertise to provide practical guidance for navigating ethical decisions in patient care.
