Abstract

ach legal system studies the liability of a physician from a specific aspect. Some study it from contractual point of view. and others study it as his natural and moral duty.
The author of this article is going to study the question of physician’s responsibility in Islamic law and to whether it is contractual or he is divinely responsible to cure the patient; whether he is liable for the damages which happen during the treatment; and whether this question is studied by jurists and applicable to their views.
Although this subject is unprecedented in jurisprudence, one can compare the jurist’s’ view on different cases with the ponit of view of scholars of this field.
