There is no objection from the Islamic point of view against IVF as long as the husband’s sperm is being conveyed to his wife’s uterus. Islam has ordained two fundamental principles for the process of human reproduction: the purity of the human race and the sharing of responsibility between a husband and a wife. As long as these two fundamental principles are not violated, Islam has no objection against such procedures.

Genetic modification procedures are permitted in Islam if they are used to correct damages to the genetic code caused by accident or disease in order to relieve human suffering. Any branch of science which is pressed into the service of His creation and employed to protect, rather than change it, is certainly not discouraged.
