Questions raised by the people of medicine to scholars of Islamic law about the incurable cases:
1 - What is the legitimate ruling in providing CPR or not to the patient who is in incurable condition as a cancer patient spread, which can not be treated when heart failure and breathing.
2 - a patient of a pyramid with severe dementia who can not identify those around him suffered severe inflammation of the lungs. The doctors have decided to treat it with antibiotics, intravenous fluids, oxygen and other possible treatments in hospital suites. They also determined that if his health deteriorated to the point where he needed intensive care, he would not be transferred there while continuing with other treatments. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation will not be performed if the heart is stopped. What is the ruling on sharee'ah in such a case?
3 - a patient entered intensive care because of poisoning in the blood and was given intensive treatments including antibiotics and artificial respiration and others, and then discovered that he has a cancer spread in the lungs and continued to deteriorate and reached the extent that doctors decided that the opportunity to respond to treatment is almost nonexistent. What is the ruling on stopping treatment in such a situation?
4- If the ICU is referred to two patients at once: The first is a woman with six children who suffered a severe postpartum haemorrhage requiring intensive care and the second an elderly man who has been in a position for two years due to paralysis in his right side and is unable to speak He had acute pneumonia and needed intensive care. The problem is that there is one bed available in intensive care and there is no chance to open any other bed or to move any patient to anywhere else. On what basis should the doctor build his decision?
5 - An elderly patient has been in a seat for four years as a result of a large stroke that left him with permanent paralysis and inability to speak and to identify those around him. He is also unable to serve himself by eating or controlling urine and feces. He was admitted to the hospital as a result of a heart clot. The doctors determined that his condition was not curable and that he would not give him CPR in case of cardiac arrest and would not enter intensive care if his condition deteriorated. However, the family of the patient rejected this decision categorically and insisted on the introduction of the intensive care unit and give him all the possible treatments some consideration of anything else. What is the shar'i ruling in such a case?
6 - a patient with advanced cancer and suffering pain in the bone and doctors decided to relieve pain needs to give large doses of morphine. It is known that such doses may lead to slow breathing and may accelerate death. What is the ruling on sharee'ah in such treatment?
