Question

My husband and I have been trying to conceive for the past many years. Unfortunately my womb was damaged during a previous c-section, and I have endometriosis. Would it be permissible for us to receive fertility treatment? Our doctor has recommended having an iui (intra-uterine insemination) using my husband's sperm.

Answer

Avoid this.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
