Fatwa specifically addressing the transplant of genital organs dispensed by Saudi scholars and reiterated by the European Council for Fatwa and Research (ECFR)

First : Transplant of sexual glands

Since the testicles and ovaries continue to bear and discharge hereditary attributes to the transferee, even after they are transplanted in a new grantee, their transplant is prohibited by Sharī'ah.

Second : Transplant of genital organs

Transplant of some genital organs which do not transfer hereditary attributes, except the genitals organs, is permissible for a legitimate necessity, in accordance with Sharī'ah standards and regulations indicated in Resolution No. 26/1/4 of the Fourth session of this Academy[1].

And Allāh knows best
