Abstract

Advancements in in vitro human embryo research prompt a reconsideration of the 14-day rule, highlighting the integration of global religious perspectives, particularly Islam. Through analyzing classical Muslim scholars’ perspectives and modern interdisciplinary Islamic bioethical discussions, we advocate extending the 14-day limit to at least 40 days, with specified conditions.
