We live in an age of unprecedented advancements in the science of Medicine. It seems everyday that we hear about some new development in stem cell research, animal cloning or some new drug that will cure all our ills. As Muslims we know that all power is from Allah, and nothing can happen without His permission, but what does our religion say about these issues? What does it say about euthanasia, organ transplantation, abortion? Furthermore what about those of us working in these fields, what advice does Islam give us? How did the Prophet deal with physical ailments, and ultimately how do they affect our spiritual relationship with our Lord?
With this in mind Ash-Shifa Trust and Liverpool University Islamic Society are able to present to you two unique events with Shaykh Samir Al Naas, who is not only a master in Islam but also a practising Physician. The events are aimed at discussing the issues regarding the practise of Western Medicine in light on Islam. They are both open to all, and provide an amazing opportunity for those working in medical fields; surely an event not to be missed. Both events are free and there will be ample time to ask questions, Insha’Allah.
