This study examines the Islamic bioethical perspective on blood transfusion, a common medical procedure that raises ethical and religious concerns. The research analyzes Quranic verses, hadiths, Islamic jurisprudence, and scholarly interpretations to understand the Islamic stance on blood, its use in medical treatments, and the permissibility of blood transfusion. While blood is generally considered impure in Islam and its consumption is prohibited, exceptions are made for life-saving medical interventions. The study explores the Quranic and hadith-based concepts of blood, its various mentions and contexts in Islamic texts, and how these relate to modern medical practices. It also discusses the medical benefits and risks of blood transfusion, including its life-saving potential and possible complications, within the framework of medical ethics. The research highlights the Islamic principle of preserving life (hifdzu al nafs) and how it applies to blood transfusion. Social aspects, including blood donation as an act of solidarity and charity, are examined through an Islamic lens. The study concludes that blood transfusion is permissible in Islam when medically necessary, aligning with the religions emphasis on preserving life and helping others. This research contributes to the growing field of Islamic bioethics in contemporary medical practices.

Conclusion

Based on Islamic jurisprudence, blood is generally considered impure and prohibited for consumption.However, exceptions are recognized in cases of urgent medical need, particularly to preserve human life, making blood transfusion permissible.Furthermore, Islam encourages blood donation as a form of altruism and charity.This study clarifies the permissibility and moral value of blood transfusion and donation within the Islamic legal framework.

Future Research

Penelitian lebih lanjut dapat dilakukan untuk mengeksplorasi bagaimana prinsip-prinsip etika Islam diterapkan dalam praktik klinis di negara-negara mayoritas Muslim. Selain itu, studi komparatif dapat dilakukan untuk membandingkan pandangan Islam tentang transfusi darah dengan tradisi agama lainnya. Penelitian juga dapat difokuskan pada pengembangan pedoman praktis bagi tenaga medis Muslim untuk menangani dilema etika terkait transfusi darah, dengan mempertimbangkan nilai-nilai agama dan kebutuhan medis pasien. Studi kualitatif yang mendalam, seperti wawancara dengan ulama dan praktisi medis, dapat memberikan wawasan yang lebih kaya tentang kompleksitas isu ini dan membantu menjembatani kesenjangan antara teori dan praktik. Terakhir, penelitian dapat menyelidiki dampak inovasi medis, seperti pengganti darah buatan, terhadap pandangan Islam tentang transfusi darah dan potensi penerimaannya dalam konteks agama.
