Abstract
PC is an integral part of healthcare, and many countries in the Arab world are
increasingly offering this care. Experts predict a rise in the demand for PC.
There are various reasons for this, including the increase of geriatric populations and prevalence of chronic and life-limiting diseases, which affect adults
and children of all ages.
This study focuses on Islamic bioethical perspectives, although other perspectives are considered. As in the WISH 2016 report Genomics in the Gulf Region
and Islamic Ethics,1 the structure of this study reflects a specific vision for how
Islamic bioethics should engage with PC.
