In the second chapter, the author has discussed a series of forbidden matters that may be done in the process of Assisted Reproduction; for example, looking at the ‘‘ʿAwrah’’ (Private parts) of the opposite sex is haram, and uncovering the ‘‘ʿAwrah’’ (Private parts) is also not permissible because it causes a haram look. However, uncovering the ‘‘ʿAwrah’’ (Private parts) before a doctor of the same sex for the purpose of Assisted Reproduction may be considered permissible because it has a Rational purpose, and it is definitely permissible if there is a necessity. Also, uncovering the body of a woman who is not elderly before a doctor of the opposite sex is forbidden and is permissible only on the assumption of necessity (p. 190).

According to secondary rules such as the principle of “no harm,” if it is not possible to perform Assisted Reproduction based on religious conditions and if avoiding it entails harm to the spouses, some matters such as not covering the body before a doctor or nurse who does not abide by the rules of Sharia are permissible based on secondary rulings (p. 339). Also, according to the rule of “no hardship,” if conducting Assisted Reproduction in compliance with the conditions of Sharia results in severe hardship and trouble for the couple, then performing it without abiding by the rules of Sharia is permissible by a secondary ruling (p. 349).

In pregnancies resulting from various methods of Assisted Reproduction, the author believes that if the child takes lineage from the living parent, the rules of inheritance will apply, but if Assisted Reproduction is done after the death of the mother or father, the child resulting from Assisted Reproduction will not inherit from them (pp. 468 and 472). Also, comparing fostering to Assisted Reproduction is not correct, and if we consider the Egg donor as the child’s mother, the owner of the womb has no relationship with the child from the religious point of view, and the rulings related to fostering, such as the Prohibition of marriage, do not apply between the owner of the womb and the child born by Assisted Reproduction (p. 481).

=== Abortion  ===
=== Abortion  ===
Abortion is forbidden in any case and there is no difference between a fetus resulting from Assisted Reproduction and a fetus resulting from natural pregnancy. Even if we consider the mother to be the Egg donor, abortion is forbidden for the owner of the womb as well. However, if avoiding abortion leads to severe hardship and trouble, abortion is permissible until before the soul is blown into the body (pp. 483-484).
