摘　　要：Dear editor:You may have often come across with differences between Islamic and secular societies regarding euthanasia,Do Not-Resuscitation,postmortem care,abortion,and the use of artificial respiration[1-6].These differences originate from Islamic view’s human dignity.According to Islam,human beings have dignity because they were created by God[5,6].Therefore,life is trusted to us by God and humans cannot decide to keep or give it up and must safe keep it.This is in contrast with secular view,which attributes dignity to free will and hence,regards life as a right at the possession of human beings.From the viewpoint of Islam,God has trusted human being with their lives and mankind finds dignity through this trust.According to Islamic views,Muslims are not entitled to make decisions about their lives,for it belongs to God and it has merely been left to us in trust[7].
