| description | Infertility has been considered as one of the major problems in human life. It is an irony in our society that a couple must have children in any case. Historically, the couples if remained issueless after the treatment used to face taunts and humiliating insults at the hands of their dear and near ones. Some of them had to adopt the children to satisfy themselves and the others. This problem also lead to the separation of many couples. Meanwhile different artificial methods of the child birth were invented to solve the problem of infertility. Among them were Artificial Insemination, Test Tube Baby Fertilization (IVF) and Cloning etc. the people around the world warmly welcomed these methods. Except the Cloning the other methods got popularity. But still some women could not conceive children by these methods owing to the complications in their uterus or pelvic disorder etc. So, this problem was solved through Surrogacy especially in the non-religious societies of the West. In this method the zygote is produced by the sperm of the husband and egg of the wife and then it is implanted in the uterus of other woman, hired for this purpose. After the delivery she hands over the child to the parents and get the fixed amount, they were agreed upon. Many people adopted this method without caring the religious, ethical, social and moral consequences. Now a days it has become a popular treatment in almost all over the world. Although this procedure is not validated by Islam yet Pakistan is among those countries where it is adopted by some people furtively. This article will highlight all these aspects. |
