Abstract:

Treatment modalities that aim to heal diseases, take away pain and protect health have developed in parallel with the development of the science of medicine and the new ones have been added to them. One of these modalities is organ transplantation which is an act of transferring a viable organ in the place of an organ that is lost or unable to fulfill its duty from a living or dead donor to another person (recipient). Debates on organ donation as a treatment modality from the religious perspective are concentrated on its conditions rather than its religious legitimacy. Hesitations in consequences of these debates arising from mostly religious beliefs seems an obstacle to organ donation and its achievement. Therefore, it is important to remove hesitations in question to reach intended achievement. With the present study, such a conclusion that some of these calculations are groundless while some of them are right but can be made up is reached. Another result is that hesitations in transplantation of face, arm and leg as well as genitals are mostly originated from the situation after the transplant surgeries.
