Description

Khalid Alhasan and a large team survey awareness and attitudes toward organ donation in Saudi Arabia, in a research paper from 2023. Transplant medicine depends on donors, yet registration in the kingdom was little studied. The survey also asked what people know about Islamic rulings on donation and about the national transplant center.

More than twenty-three hundred people replied. Nearly nine in ten called organ donation important, but only about one in five had registered as a donor. Just over half knew the Islamic ruling that permits donation. Knowing the ruling and knowing the center both tracked with registering. The authors call for campaigns that close this knowledge gap.
