Is it permissible to donate organs after death?
It is likely permissible to donate organs if it does not lead to the death of the donor, and the Islamic Fiqh Academy has supported this ruling. Donation includes transferring an organ from a living person, a deceased person, or from fetuses, while adhering to and medical regulations. The expected benefit must outweigh the harm, and the donor must be of full legal capacity. It is prohibited to transfer a life-sustaining organ from a living person, or anything that impairs a fundamental function. Permission or the consent of the guardian is required for transferring organs from the deceased. The sale of organs is also prohibited, though the beneficiary offering money is a matter that needs consideration.
