Question: The case is: The
wife is healthy in the sense that she can produce babies but the husband
is sterile. They decide to have a baby. For this, another man’s sperms
are taken and injected into the wife for the purpose of pregnancy. How
do you see this medical advancement? Is it right or wrong in the light
of Islam?
Answer: Artificial insemination
is a great medical advancement. However, it can only be allowed if the
husband’s sperms are injected. There is no difference between the situation
you have stated and the one in which a wife conceives after sleeping with
someone else. This is of course is totally prohibited in Islam.
