lets not use blunders of scientists to excuse blunders of religious scholars. lets focus on religious scholars here.

I am not criticizing people who had no good means, I am criticizing people who did not put an effort into finding the knowledge or who had knowledge available but did not really put any effort towards it.
More than that I am criticizing people who should have said that they did not know enough about it to make a ruling but its better to be careful and avoid it, instead they went very vocally against it. so it was not they they did not have access to knowledge, they simply did not put enough effort to learn and then make a claim, they just spoke up against it as some sort of authorities, rather than admit that they did not know enough to make a call at that point in time.

before we go any further, I want you to read up a little bit on when IVF was in experimental stages, when it was tested, when it was available, what the initial reaction was by many scholars and how long it took for them to say its okay.

…

What I have been saying all along is that both groups of people of worldly knowledge and religious knowledge are to be blamed for confusion in earlier time.

IVF between married individuals is not prohibited and it is prohibited between those who are not. Surrogacy as per islamic rule is not permitted.

As I also mentioned above, until the knowledge is not clear and until knowledge is available, it is OK to hold the rains and make people not do the tacts and run for new innovations.

This philosophy is not uncommon in ‘modern day’. For example if it is somehow not known that a particular drug or device to be placed in the body has not met the standard of medical care, then authorities do recall the items for safety of the people. Even if it is found later that the items were fine and safe, one cannot blame authorities to exercise caution and prohibit people to use it.

And IVF is not rocket science now a days and many common people understand it very well.

If anything, IVF was prohibited for surrogacy with strong words from the beginning and still is. And in that regard, religious scholars were right all along.

When we compare two groups of people, we should compare equally knowledgeable people, it is not fair to compare any (edited upon request) rural person with some religious knowledge with a scientific scholar.
