Aurat Dalam Perubatan

Aurat In Medical

Abstract

Setiap Muslim berkewajiban untuk menutup aurat. Ia bertujuan untuk menjaga kehormatan diri daripada dilihat oleh orang lain. Terdapat perbezaan batas antara sesama mahram dan bukan mahram. Namun, kepekaan masyarakat terhadap isu menutup aurat amatlah rendah lebih-lebih lagi jika ianya berkaitan dengan perubatan. Justeru, artikel ini menerangkan batas aurat dalam perubatan menurut perspektif Islam. Kesedaran masyarakat berkenaan batas dan kewajipan menutup aurat perlu dipertingkatkan terutamanya ketika menerima rawatan. Kajian ini menggunakan metodologi kualitatif dengan rekabentuk analisis dokumen seperti buku, jurnal dan artikel. Data dianalisis secara deskriptif. Dapatan kajian kajian mendapati umat Islam wajib menutup aurat iaitu daripada paras pusat hingga lutut bagi lelaki manakala seluruh tubuh badan kecuali muka dan kedua telapak tangan bagi wanita. Selain itu, terdapat juga kelonggaran berkaitan aurat iaitu aurat boleh dibuka bagi tujuan perubatan kerana ianya dikategorikan sebagai rukhsah tetapi mempunyai had dan batasan yang telah digariskan oleh syarak seperti bukaan aurat hanya pada tempat yang ingin dirawat sahaja.

ABSTRACT

Every Muslim is obliged to cover his private parts. It aims to keep self-esteem from being seen by others. There is a boundary difference between fellow mahrams and non-mahrams. However, the community's sensitivity to the issue of covering the aurat is very low, especially if it is related to medicine. Thus, this article describes the limits of aurat in medicine according to the Islamic perspective. Public awareness of the limits and obligation to cover the aurat needs to be increased, especially when receiving treatment. This study uses a qualitative methodology with the design of document analysis such as books, journals, and articles. The data was analyzed descriptively. The findings of the study found that Muslims are obliged to cover their aurat from the navel to the knees for men, and the whole body except the face and both palms for women. Apart from that, there is also a relaxation related to aurat. That is, aurat can be opened for medical purposes because it is categorized as rukhsah but it has limits and restrictions that have been outlined by Islamic law, such as opening the aurat only in the place to be treated.
