Conditions for a male doctor to treat female patients

Q 3: An old woman lost some of her teeth and then her countenance was deformed (Part No. 24; Page No. 417) in addition to weakening her ability to chew food. Is it permissible for her to fit artificial teeth by male doctors, if she can not find female ones? Kindly, give us the legal Fatwa in this regard.


A: It is permissible for her to fit in artificial teeth by a Muslim or Non-Muslim male doctor, if she can not find an able Muslim or Non-Muslim female doctor. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
