Euthanasia and stopping medical treatment is halaal?
http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisf...?newsfeed=true
A 32-year-old with anorexia is going to be force-fed in an attempt to keep her alive. Early diagnosis and support might have changed her life, she wants to be allowed to die. What is the Islamic ruling on this?
The woman was abused as a child but this did not come out until years later when she developed alcohol addiction and other problems.
As a Muslim would I be within the rules, if I refused to have any more treatment? I know it is sunnah to adopt the means and to take medicine, but what if one feels the treatment is too painful and one just wants to leave it to the Will of Allah
