Freezing sperms and eggs is one of the contemporary jurisprudential Issues. Therefore knowing its rules in
Islamic jurisprudence requires searching for similar cases in the resources of Islamic Jurisprudence and
practicing analogy where, in origina
l case, used as a criterion for the new one.

are frozen, and to which level this is compatible with Islamic shari’ah and its rules, particularly if
fertilization is used for the husband and his wife (legal marriage), and if the aim of this process is to help
the husband and the wife to give birth at the time they wish to, or at the time of elevating the preventive
reason which was at the time of freezing.
This paper concluded that the ruling of freezing the sperms and eggs is based on the reason which lead to

freezing becomes forbidden. This maxim in addition to some particular boundaries and conditions would
rule the issue of freezing.
