maulana, agla sawal aaya hai mr. amjad ahmed ka dilli se. unhon ne likha hai: "every religious person or all the religions oppose cloning as per Islamic view. what is our viewpoint about cloning of animals and humans? please explain." cloning jo hai, aik taraf to wahi log jo yeh sab baton ko mante hain, population control bhi karna chahte hain, doosra naye insan paida karna chahte hain. yeh kya contradiction hai? yani kaisi ajeeb contradiction hai? aik taraf woh kehte hain ke hum naya insan paida karenge, doosri taraf kehte hain hum population control bhi karenge. to nature ko chalne dijiye, natural process ko chalne dijiye. natural process mein interveint karna main samajhta hoon ke aik aik aik sarfrapan hai.

aaj tak cloning koi kamyab nahi hui hai. jo aik bhed banai thi, woh bhi bhed bimar thi, bimar mar gayi. woh bhi, woh koi healthy bhiir nahi thi. woh jo ship banai thi unho ne, woh koi healthy ship nahi thi. to nature ka jo process hai, wahi sahi hai. cheezon ko nature par rehne dijiye, nature mein interveint mat kijiye. yahi islam ka tareeqa hai, yeh aql ka tareeqa hai. maulana, agla sawal aaya hai miss naghma siddiqui ka dilli se.
