Abstract
Recent advances in biomedical sciences have added new layers of complexity to the concept of medical treatment – in Arabic tadāwī or ʿilāj (Wizārat al-Awqāf 1983–2006, 11:116–118; al-Qaradāghī and al-Muḥammadī 2006, 88–196; Qureshi and Padela 2016, 595–605). That is why this concept cannot be approached as one single block anymore, because there are different types, with sometimes blurred borderlines, whose ethical judgment would naturally vary from one to the other.
