  • Critical Analysis of the Pakistan Medical Dental Council Code and Bioethical Issues
    CTE Centrum för tillämpad etik Linköpings Universitet Critical analysis of the Pakistan Medical Dental Council Code and Bioethical Issues - FOUZIA KAZIM - Master’s Thesis in Applied Ethics Centre for Applied Ethics Linköpings universitet Presented June 2007 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Marcus Duewell, Utrecht University DEDICATED TO My parents Mr. Muhammad Kazim Khan Barki and Mrs. Masooda Kazim for their immense support and inspiration. ABSTRACT Medical paternalism is a common practice in Pakistan, it can be justified on the principles of beneficence and non-maleficence in certain clinical situations but in the research medicine it can pose many ethical implications. Islam is a communitarian religion but it provides full autonomy to the competent individuals. Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PM&DC) codes of ethics have been formulated in line with the World Medical Association and it also states in its preamble that it follows Islamic bioethical laws. The PM&DC guidelines do not provide substantial system for obtaining consent from patients and the research participants. Neither does it comply with the Islamic bioethical laws nor with the International Declarations. The language used in the codes is ambiguous that can have different interpretations and there is no legal support from the civil law of the country. These factors supplemented with the cultural values have elevated the status of the physician and gives complete authority to them for medical decisions. Medical paternalism in research medicine can be a violation of the dignity and autonomy of the research participants. Patients are used as means and commodities rather than end in themselves. The research involves risks of harms no matter how low these risks are – the matter of concern is that research participants are involved in research accompanied with risks about which they are not aware.

  • ABORTION: an INFRINGEMENT of the FOETUS' RIGHT to LIFE in ISLAMIC LAW Alhaji Umar Alkali*1 Azizah Mohd**2 Nora Abdul Hak***3 R
    (2015) 23 IIUMLJ 85 ABORTION: AN INFRINGEMENT OF THE FOETUS’ RIGHT TO LIFE IN ISLAMIC LAW Alhaji Umar Alkali*1 Azizah Mohd**2 Nora Abdul Hak***3 Roslina Che Soh @ Yusoff****4 ABSTRACT Under Islamic law, the life of a human being is sacred and as such, no one is allowed to kill or bring an end to the life of another except in accordance with the law. Whether a foetus under Islamic law is entitled to enjoy this protection or not is a subject that is hotly debated by Muslim scholars. Abortion has a direct link to the right of the child to life because when abortion is done, it simply brings an end to the life of the human being in the womb that is in the process of development. Abortion is generally prohibited under Islamic law because it is tantamount to killing a human being that has not fully developed. Muslim jurists are not unanimous on the stage and conditions that can warrant the permissibility of abortion. This study therefore intends to employ a doctrinal analysis in its methodology to examine the respective views of jurists on abortion. The study examines the definition of abortion from the juristic and medical perspectives, the concept of abortion under Islamic law and authorities from the Qur’an, sunnah and scholars’ views concerning abortion, situations under which abortion may be permitted under Islamic law and the position of the law in some Muslim states. The article ends with a conclusion and recommendations on the practical steps that need to be taken in order to ensure that children’s right to life are well protected even before they are born.

The Journal of medicine and philosophy 2011 Jun; 36(3): 261­73 Abstract: In Defending Life: A Moral and Legal Case Against Abortion Choice (2007) and an earlier article in this journal, "Defending Abortion Philosophically"(2006), Francis Beckwith argues that fetuses are, from conception, prima facie wrong to kill. His arguments are based on what he calls a "metaphysics of the human person" known as "The Substance View." I argue that Beckwith's metaphysics does not support his abortion ethic: Moral, not metaphysical, claims that are part of this Substance View are the foundation of the argument, and Beckwith inadequately defends these moral claims. Thus, Beckwith's arguments do not provide strong support for what he calls the "pro­life" view of abortion.

  • Is There Room for Religious Ethics in South African Abortion Law?
    This open-access article is distributed under REVIEW Creative Commons licence CC-BY-NC 4.0. Is there room for religious ethics in South African abortion law? F Jogee, LLB, LLM Centre for the AIDS Programme of Research in South Africa (CAPRISA), University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, South Africa Corresponding author: F Jogee ([email protected]) In light of the prominence and influence of secular bioethics, one could argue that religious ethics concerning weighty medical ethical issues such as abortion are often overlooked. South Africa (SA) is one of just five African countries which have legalised abortion without undue restriction, notwithstanding its gestational restrictions, placing it among the countries with the most liberal abortion laws in Africa.[1] More than 94% of South Africans are religious, predominantly following Christianity, African Traditional Religion, Islam, Judaism and Hinduism.[2] This raises the question of whether contemporary abortion law is inclusive of the religious ethical values that dictate the lives of the great majority of citizens. This article will explore religious ethics and secular morality in SA, followed by a discussion of the legal status of the fetus and contemporary abortion legislation. Subsequently, this article will determine whether the law is inclusive of religious ethical views on abortion, and if so, how. S Afr J Bioethics Law 2018;11(1):46-51.

For this purpose, a number of Islamic treatises are systematically examined, and a cross-cultural along with a cross-country assessment of 47 countries abortion laws particularly ‘Muslim-majority’ (OIC member) countries are conducted to assess the momentous impacts on rape-victims. Additionally, contemporary data i.e. legal edicts and various reported rape/adultery cases in different Islamic countries are analyzed with special reference to the circumstances in which the verdicts are issued. The study asserts that mostly the classical and contemporary literature silent on the cited issue except few of the legal edicts. Although, Islamic lit and scripts including bio-medical and bio-ethical has discussed it in general way. As a result, the rape victims appeared that they may be allowed termination of unwanted fetus due to coerced sexual relation. But, whether in preview of, some of the legal edicts which causes intricacy, the state laws, rules and more particularly the religious and cultural aspects may allow this kind of deliberation? A predominantly conventional approach was found, since 18 out of 47 countries do not allow abortion except for necessity.
