^ He made things halal and haraam to test the obedience of the people....

Re: how come the cloned creature gets the soul??
Its not a matter of if cloning is allowed or Haram, in my opinion, it is the potential for abuse and ethical dilemma it poses that must be dealt with. These issues can be tied to Islam indirectly, however, I do not see why cloning will be disallowed in Islam.
Here is an ayath that anti was hinting towards.
إِنَّ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأرْضِ وَاخْتِلافِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَالْفُلْكِ الَّتِي تَجْرِي فِي الْبَحْرِ بِمَا يَنْفَعُ النَّاسَ وَمَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مِنْ مَاءٍ فَأَحْيَا بِهِ
الأرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا وَبَثَّ فِيهَا مِنْ كُلِّ دَابَّةٍ وَتَصْرِيفِ الرِّيَاحِ وَالسَّحَابِ الْمُسَخَّرِ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالأرْضِ لآيَاتٍ لِقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ002.164
Behold! in the creation of the heavens and the earth; in the alternation of the night and the day; in the sailing of the ships through the ocean for the profit of mankind; in the rain which Allah Sends down from the skies, and the life which He gives therewith to an earth that is dead; in the beasts of all kinds that He scatters through the earth; in the change of the winds, and the clouds which they Trail like their slaves between the sky and the earth;- (Here) indeed are **Signs **for a people that are wise.

who said cloning is not allowed.
Re: how come the cloned creature gets the soul??
The Jewish/Christian scriptures indicate that animals have souls.
Re: how come the cloned creature gets the soul??
For a clone to exist, a surrogate mother is necessary…And in Islam, the ‘Ruh’ or spirit is given to the clot of blood after 120 days inside the womb of the mother…
So, if a cloned object is tranferred inside the body of a surrogate human female, and conception occurs, then 120 days later, a spirit is given to the child inside the womb…
If the baby makes it out alive and well, then obviously, Allah :swt: has given the baby a Ruh…
Cloning is very much allowed in Islam, as far as I remember and from whatever knowledge I have…
