Summary
A woman who undergoes ovum retrieval by needle aspiration does not need the obligatory bath, since the procedure involves no emission of semen and is not a state of janabah. A man who collects sperm by masturbation, resulting in the emission of semen, must perform the obligatory bath. If sperm is obtained by a minor surgical procedure that takes a small piece of tissue without any emission of semen, the bath is not required.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Sementara itu, pengambilan sperma menggunakan kaedah "masturbate" bagi usaha mendapatkan sperma melalui air mani maka ia perlu mandi wajib.
