Keperluan rawatan oleh perawat lelaki menurut syarak merupakan isu penting dalam perubatan Islam yang memerlukan keseimbangan antara keperluan rawatan kesihatan dan pematuhan kepada hukum syariah. Islam menekankan penjagaan kesihatan serta kewajipan menjaga aurat dan maruah wanita terutama dalam situasi rawatan perubatan. Namun, terdapat persoalan tentang bagaimana batas syarak dapat dipelihara dalam keadaan apabila tiada perawat wanita atau dalam situasi kecemasan yang memerlukan tindakan segera oleh perawat lelaki. Artikel ini membincangkan kedudukan rawatan oleh perawat lelaki terhadap pesakit wanita berdasarkan panduan syarak termasuk isu aurat, interaksi antara lelaki dan wanita (khalwat) serta situasi darurat yang membenarkan rawatan tersebut. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah pengumpulan data kualitatif melalui analisis literatur dari sumber-sumber syariah, pandangan ulama serta dokumen berkaitan rawatan perubatan oleh perawat lelaki. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa rawatan oleh perawat lelaki dibenarkan dalam keadaan darurat dengan syarat mematuhi batasan syarak yang ketat bagi memastikan kehormatan dan maruah pesakit wanita tetap terpelihara sesuai dengan prinsip syariah.
The necessity of treatment by male healthcare providers according to Islamic law is an important issue in Islamic medicine that requires a balance between the need for healthcare and adherence to Shariah law. Islam emphasizes health preservation as well as the obligation to protect women’s modesty and dignity especially in medical treatment situations. However, there is a question of how Shariah boundaries can be maintained when female healthcare providers are unavailable or in emergency situations that require immediate action by male providers. This paper discusses the position of treatment by male healthcare providers for female patients based on Shariah guidelines including issues such as modesty (aurat), interaction between men and women (khalwat) and emergency situations that allow such treatment. This study uses qualitative data collection methods through literature analysis of Shariah sources, scholars' views and documents related to treatment by male healthcare providers. The findings show that treatment by male healthcare providers is permitted in emergency situations provided strict adherence to Shariah boundaries to ensure the dignity and modesty of female patients in accordance with Islamic principles.
