(Fatwa: 1173/146=B/1429)
Patients should be kept on machine as long as possible, and when the guardian of the patient is not able to bear the expenses then there is no wrong in switching off the machine. This is neither murder nor a cause leading to murder. So, in the above condition case, there is no wrong in switching off the machine. (Muntakhabat Nizamul Fatawa: 349)
