Summary
The Sarawak State Fatwa Board decided that the ruling on transplanting other organs is the same as that for kidney transplants, subject to conditions. A living donor must donate willingly and sincerely, be certified by a medical specialist as not endangering their health, and the donation must not involve sale. For a deceased donor, consent must have been stated before death or permitted by the guardian or heirs without coercion, the organ must be certified as still usable, the purpose must be solely for treatment, and no sale may be involved.
