The Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) has declared that the presence of sperm bank in the country was haram or prohibited.
"Sperm donor is haram, so is sperm bank," MUI edict commission deputy secretary Asrorun Ni'am Sholeh said as quoted by kompas.com on Tuesday.
However, MUI allowed the establishment of breast milk banks in the country.
"A breast milk bank could be established as long as it meets the first requirement that there is an agreement between the baby parents and a breast milk donor including a payment to the donor," he said.
He added Islam banned two babies breastfed by one woman from marrying each other in the future.
