Abstract
This paper is a condensed reflection meant to complement the work of other papers in this volume on the interplay of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ARTs) and Islamic ethics by consulting (a) relevant discussions in the classical Islamic sources and (b) primary sources produced by the Islamic institutions that involved both biomedical scientists and religious scholars in their deliberations on the ARTs. The focus here will be on three leading institutions, namely the Islamic Organization for Medical Sciences (IOMS) based in Kuwait, the International Islamic Fiqh Academy (IIFA) based in Jeddah, and the Islamic Fiqh Academy (IFA) based in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.
