New debate in Saudia - who is dead and who is alive???

[Logical]

For multiple decades, doctors in Saudi Arabia would disconnect a patient from life support if that person was declared brain-dead. This was based on a religious fatwa issued in accordance to prevalent scientific norms.

This seems to have come under challenge by a recent development - doctors from US and Saudi Arabia are now requesting the government to re-visit the fatwa, in order to accommodate the function of a beating heart when deciding who's dead and who's not!!!

interesting debate, where religious rulings inevitably follow SCIENTIFIC developments - mainly carried by non-muslims...

“Twenty-two years ago we did not know what we know now,” explained Abdulgader. “What we know now is that a beating heart produces energy, it produces electromagnetic waves. These waves react with the outside world. The happenings in the cosmos and the outside world has a direct bearing on the way our heart reacts,” he said.

Abdulgader said these electromagnetic waves are similar to airwaves. “What do you do when you turn on your television or radio. You basically try to catch a certain frequency and when that is matched there is communication — the radio and the television come alive. The same is the case with our heart waves. When it matches a certain frequency it is able to communicate with the higher force in life,” he said.

The electromagnetic waves that a beating heart generates create a radius of six to 12 feet from the center of the heart. “This is considered to be a substantial amount of energy. Let me put it this way, when the heart beats (there’s) something like 2.2 volts of energy ... this is enough to light up a bulb. There is a halo of light around our heart when it is beating. This is nothing but a sign of life,” he said.

آئیں گے، یہ سب راہ راست پر آئیں گے ، لیکن .........................سو سال بعد

یہ 'سو سال' وہ کم از کم مدت ہے جو کہ سائنسی اور جدید علوم کو انکے دماغوں تک رسائی حاصل کرنے میں درکار ہوتی ہے

پچھلے پانچ سو سال کی تاریخ سے یہ "کم ازکم مدت" بھی ایک تاریخی 'فارمولے' کی حیثیت اختیار کر چکی ہے
