Medical services according to Sharia principles imply a number of specific postulates.
First of all, it is necessary to observe the norms and rules of Islamic ethics.
A woman should be treated by female doctors,
and a man should be treated by male doctors.
It is permissible to consult doctors of the opposite sex only in emergency cases,
when there is a life-threatening situation for the patient, and there is no doctor of the same gender as the patient.
It is unacceptable for individuals who are not involved in the examination and the performance of medical procedures to be present in the room.
Also, unnecessary exposure of the 'awrah'—parts of the body that should not be shown to strangers—is excluded.
Regarding pharmaceuticals and medical devices,
they must comply with the same requirements,
as well as to the composition of food products, that is, they must not contain substances prohibited for consumption. The only exceptions are cases where there is no substitute for the drug and the patient's condition significantly deteriorates without taking this medication. All these issues, of course, need to be discussed with a doctor who is understanding of Islamic principles.
An equally important aspect is providing patients with the opportunity to observe ritual practices within the walls of the medical facility.
Additionally, when patients are undergoing inpatient treatment, it is important to provide them with halal food.
Childbirth according to Islamic tradition - these are natural births "in solitude" without the support of relatives and with the mobile phone turned off. But in each Muslim country, there are its own peculiarities: if in Turkey, partner births are allowed and even welcomed, then, for example, in Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Oman husbands are not allowed even at the door of the maternity hospital.
Childbirth in the understanding of Islam - it's an instinct, a force of nature,
instilled in the female body by the Almighty, and for success, it is simply necessary to trust this element.
And the GENESIS maternity hospital is ready to help with this......
