Islamic Religious and their view on medical staff rights, legal and criminal liability

Medical procedures in order to the patient's treatment are legitimate, necessary and have to be done sufficiency. When the under treatment patient dies or injured, are the doctors responsible, even if he/she has enough knowledge and experiences, or there are some limitations? The question is whether or not the physicians are responsible for compensation? Addressing such kind of questions needs systematic investigations in different aspects. The present descriptive/ analytical study, aimed to compare perspectives of Islamic religious either Shia or four divisions of Sunnis about juridical and legal responsibilities of medical staff. In conclusion, physicians are not either responsible or free of charge in absolute, but if they have no enough experience and knowledge, or did not pay enough attention, they are responsible, otherwise not.
