Surrogacy
Question
Seeking treatment for some illness is sunnah... And Allah has sent cure with illness... This is a hadith... As modern science is getting new technology and ways to cure many diseases so what if one cannot carry a child for the full term of pregnancy due to some medical issues... Gestational surrogacy is the only cure to it.... I have read many Islamic views on it and some consider it okay as it is a cure... Sonme are not okay with it.... If it is not allowed then what about that hadis and sunnah?
Answer
This is not permissible.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
