<![CDATA[Transplantation of pig corneas as a replacement for human corneas that are blind due to disease in the cornea is currently an inevitability that has occurred so that a doctor and Muslim donor recipient who will carry out a pig cornea transplant requires the establishment of Islamic law for this action, this is Because the source of donor corneas from humans is very difficult to obtain, so scientists have found another alternative as a source of corneas which come from pig corneas, which according to Islamic law, all materials originating from pigs are haram. Islamic law comes from the Al-Quran and Hadith, but if there is no clear text regarding a problem faced by humans, the ulama make ijtihad to determine the law through Ijmak and Qiyas. With current technological developments, not all problems can be answered unequivocally from existing Islamic legal sources and arguments, such as the current problem of transplanting pig corneas as a replacement for human corneas, so other legal arguments are needed, including Maṣlahah. In this case, the researcher took an approach to determining Islamic law based on the Al-Quran and Hadith as well as Maṣlahah Al-Ghazali's theory and the fiqh rules that support it. This article is a normative and empirical research sourced from a literature review from various representative literature sources and requests consideration of Islamic law from the Indonesian Ulema Council with the conclusion that pig corneal transplantation can be carried out with very strict requirements.]]>
