ICSI procedure to fall pregnant

· 3 Muharram 1447 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My wife and I have been trying to fall pregnant for a few years now with no success, and after visiting a number of doctors, we've been advised that our only option going forward is to do an ICSI procedure.

Is this procedure permissible in Islam?

Answer

It is not permissible to go for this procedure as one will be required to expose one's private area before the doctor without any valid sharee need.

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