Sumario:Nowadays, the increasing scientific and practical advances in the field of organ donation have caused many discussions in the world. One of these topics is religious beliefs in divine religions, which has always been one of the most important challenges in the field of organ donation. Although there are differences in the views of different religions regarding organ donation, many of these views are close to each other. Often, different sects and religions have accepted organ transplantation with their own conditions. Based on Islamic jurisprudence and Shariah principles, organ donation is permissible under certain conditions; most religious scholars have also accepted this opinion. The Muslim holy book (Qur’an 5:32) has mentioned, “if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people.”
