[quote]Salam all

I am quoting my own views and experiences on the above subject. I studied in co-education in PK and qualified as a doctor in PK also from a co-education medical college.

islam is religion of intention. We studied biology and then later on in medical school, more extensive study. However I do not remember getting embarrased or feeling ashamed about what I was learning. There is a difference between reading Gray's anatomy and a dodgy magazine. The purpose and intention is different.

If you are planning and studying to be a doctor, you have to learn everything and cannot pick and choose.

Whilst you are a doctor and working as a doctor, when examining patients, it is a mechanical process, you are dealing with a problem, someone has come to you for help, it is my responsibility to help.At that point and time, I am a doctor and she is a patient and my questions, examination and explanation are all geered towards one thing, to help the patient. for that period of time the gender is not the question.

Perhaps working in UK may have influenced me to be like this way. If a female patient comes to see me and requires a detailed examination, I always suggest if she would prefer to see a lady doctor, that option is always given. When you undertake a responsibility and that too like being a doctor , you cannot pick and choose the topics and subjects you like. You come across many aspects in the field of medicine that a normal person will perhaps never contemplate doing.

My advice is that I have never felt that my work compromises my religion. I base it on intention. You touch a stranger female but with what intention?

If someone feels that they are uncomfortable or embarrased , then most respectfully, you will always have other options of subjects. There is an old saying if you cannot stand the heat do not stand by the fire.[/quote]
