Results We achieved 13% clinical pregnancies and 11% live births. COS and infertility type do not have significant effect on IUI clinical outcomes with unstable intervention of various couples' parameters, including the female age, the IUI attempt rank, and the sperm quality. Conclusion Further, the COS used seemed a weak predictor for IUI success; therefore, the indications need more discussion, especially in unexplained infertility cases involving various factors. Indeed, the fourth IUI attempt, the female age over 40 years, and the total motile sperm count 1 × 106. The exclusion criteria were TMS ≀ 1 × 106; sperm donation; seropositivity for human immunodeficiency virus HIV for any couple member; inseminations performed in a natural cycle or with clomiphene citrate CC. IUI ProtocolAll couples had undergone a standard infertility evaluation, which included medical history, physical examination, and assessment of tubal patency by either hysterosalpingography or laparoscopy and hormonal analysis on cycle day 3. A transvaginal ultrasound scan was performed on the second day of the cycle. On the same day, ovarian stimulation was carried out with recombinant FSH follitropin α; rFSH; Gonal-F, Merck Serono, France, or follitropin ÎČ; Puregon, MSD, France, urinary FSH urofollitropin, Fostimon, France, or hMG menotropin, Menopur, France at a starting dose of 75 IU/day from the second day of the response and endometrial thickness were monitored by transvaginal ultrasonography starting on day 6 of stimulation and then on alternate days; the gonadotropin dose was adjusted according to the ovarian response and the patient's characteristics. When at least one mature follicle reached a diameter >17 mm and E2 level > 150 pmol/mL, the recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin hCG, Ovitrelle, Merck Serono, France was administered, and endometrial thickness was single IUI was performed 36 h after hCG injection using a soft catheter classic Frydman catheter; Laboratoire CCD, Paris, France or a hard catheter SET TDT, International Laboratory CDD. The semen samples used for insemination were processed within 1 hour of ejaculation by density gradient centrifugation, followed by washing with a culture medium after determining the TMS and semen analysis according to the WHO criteria [26]. Outcome VariableThe main clinical outcome measures were clinical pregnancy and live-birth rates per cycle. Clinical pregnancy was defined as the evidence of pregnancy by ultrasound examination of the gestational sac at weeks 5– Statistical AnalysisThe stimulation protocols were divided into 4 categories according to the gonadotropin used for COS rFSH/Gonal-F, rFSH/Puregon, uFSH/Fostimon, and hMG/ type was considered in seven categories cervical factor, dysovulation, endometriosis, tubal factor, male factor, and unexplained infertility. After statistical analysis of the results, it was necessary to determine the parameter cut-offs to give infertile couples more chances through IUI before carrying out other ART techniquesGroups were compared for all main couples' characteristics and cycle outcomes. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation SD or percentage of the total. Data were analysed with Student's t-test for means comparisons or with the chi-squared test for comparison of percentages using Statistical Package, version SAS; Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA; p 15 Sperm motility ≄40 % versus ≀39 TMS ≄5 × 106 versus <5 s power calculation showed a power of 80% to demonstrate a difference across the COS groups in delivery rates of 10% between groups 1 and 4 and 2 and 4, of 11% between groups 3 and 4, of 8% between groups 2 and 3, of 8% between groups 2 and 4, of 7% between groups 1 and 2, 6% between recombinant FSH and urinary products, and of 9% between FSH and HMG4. DiscussionAs a first step in ART, IUI keeps a central place in the management of infertile couples for its simplicity, but it still offers weak effectiveness. Indeed, IUI success is still a subject of controversy, with a clinical pregnancy rate between 8% and 25% [16, 18, 27–31]. Furthermore, based on a recent prospective study in seven French ART centres, the overall live-birth rate was 11% per cycle, varying from 8% to 18% between centres [9]. Similarly, we attained 13% for clinical pregnancy and 11% for live-birth for the 1251 couples who underwent homologous IUI with gonadotropins for COS Table 1.Indeed, gonadotropin use had proved its superiority to improve clinical outcomes of IUI compared to other COS protocols, such as CC and letrozole [32–38]. Erdem et al. [36] showed that, for IUI success, rFSH Gonal-F was more effective than using CC to reach 28% for clinical pregnancy and 24% of live-birth. Nevertheless, it is still not clear which of the currently available medications is preferable for COS [15, 23, 39–43]. However, several studies compared different types of gonadotropin efficiency rFSH, uFSH, or hMG [15, 25, 44–47]. Indeed, in the first part of this work, we compared four gonadotropins for COS in IUI rFSH/Gonal-F; rFSH/Puregon; uFSH/Fostimon and hMG/Menopur while rFSH was the most used in 72% of couples Table 1.This preference was noticed in other studies [9, 15, 25, 36] without finding any significant improvement on clinical outcomes. Indeed, as demonstrated in our study, there was no significant difference between different protocols used for COS rFSH/Gonal-F; rFSH/Puregon; uFSH/Fostimon; and hMG/Menopur; Table 2, although, in contrast, some authors pointed to the greater potency of rFSH [22, 48]. However, other studies have reported higher pregnancy rates for hMG [33, 49–53]. Even if our study had 80% power to demonstrate differences in PR of 6% to 11% between 2 groups, according to their size, it is clear that the differences we observed were very low, in favour of a low impact of the 4 used COS regimen on the results. This was less clear for infertility origin because of the very low numbers of some groups. However, the results of the multivariate logistic model confirmed the results observed at the first step analysis, reinforcing their valueGenerally, rFSH is commonly used to minimize the possibility of developing ovarian cysts associated with LH contamination and to improve the probability of a more consistent, effective, and efficient ovarian response [22, 48].Although there was no significant difference between the efficiency of gonadotropins for COS, other COS protocol factors could be involved to improve the clinical outcomes, especially regarding the starting dose and the total doses of treatment as proved by several studies [15, 23–25, 54].To explain the absence of a significant difference between the four COS groups, we analysed other factors relative to COS protocol female age, IUI attempt rank, and sperm quality. As expected, our studied population showed its heterogeneity involving multiple factors, which was the reason not to have a real consensus about the efficiency of COS, and this made it harder to really evaluate its impact. The sperm motility significantly affected the live-birth in rFSH groups Table 3. Furthermore, the IUI attempt rank had a significant negative correlation with clinical outcomes with unequal values between groups Table 3. Indeed, it is not legitimate to consider the COS as a strong predictive factor of clinical outcomes in IUI, while other factors could not all be controlledInfertility type has been discussed throughout several studies as a nonnegligible indicator of IUI clinical outcomes [15, 30, 38, 50, 55–59], while the latest National Institute for Health and Care Excellence NICE guideline on fertility [59] recommends that IUI should not be routinely offered to people with unexplained infertility, mild endometriosis, or mild male factor infertility who are having regular unprotected sexual this reason, in the second part of this study, we were more focused on evaluating the infertility type effect on IUI success. As a result, there was no significant difference between clinical outcomes of the different groups based on the infertility type Table 4. Although unexplained infertility was most couples' indication for IUI 36% Table 1, as noticed in the recent report of Monraisin et al. [9] with a value of 39%, the lack of significant difference in clinical outcomes with other IUI indications was not unexpected, while its aetiology kept the multifactorial profile [57] shared with other infertilities. Our results are confirmed by the recent study of [38]. However, some teams report the best pregnancy rates in cervical indications [30, 55] and in anovulation infertilities [15, 50, 56]. Indeed, the pregnancy rate per cycle for patients with anovulation due to PCOS was 13%, which was probably corrected by Controlled Ovarian Hyperstimulation COH [15]. On the other hand, endometriosis was considered a bad prognostic factor for IUI success with lower pregnancy between 6% and 9% than other IUI indications [20, 50, 60]. Indeed, endometriosis, which is among the most difficult disorders to treat [21], decreased the IUI success rate for mild compared to severe cases 6% of success rate. This fact can argue the limitation of IUI to a maximum of two to three cycles [15, 19, 50, 60, 61]. This fact could explain our weak population size in the endometriosis group with just 35 couples, while the majority of couples were directed to undergo predictors of success have been widely studied on the COS effect and the infertility type effect. The most discussed effect was the age of the women, with a large debate on its impact on IUI success. Age has been accepted by many authors as a major predictive factor for pregnancy after IUI [29, 30, 60].The female age was a predictive variable for the live-birth rate but not for clinical pregnancy due to the increased miscarriage rate with age dependence, as can be observed in predictive unadjusted models [9, 57, 62]. The female age became a significant variable predictive for clinical pregnancy and live-birth rate with an adjusted model designed by Van Voorhis et al. [63] and, subsequently, Hansen et al. [57].In contrast with the aforementioned authors, our results did not show a significant correlation between the women's age and the clinical pregnancy rate Table 1, which was confirmed by several studies [11, 15, 16, 28, 64, 65]. This is due both to the intervention of other factors used in patients' selection including ovarian reserve and to the low numbers of women aged 40 or the female age impacted the success of IUI. A recent study by Bakas et al. [66] demonstrated a significant negative correlation between the age of the women and the clinical outcome of IUI r = − Indeed, with the female age cut-off of 40 years, clinical pregnancy was significantly affected Table 6 as shown throughout several studies, while the pregnancy rate decreased from 13–38% to 4–12% when the women were older than 40 years [30, 60, 67].The female age impact on IUI success could be masked in our study, because only were over 35 years and over 40 years. There may be a too low power to show a significant impact of age 40 and more in the multilogistic model, even if OR for this age category was very low Moreover, a multilogistic model including age as a continuous variable showed a significant negative impact on the delivery chance. On the other hand, age may also be linked to other factors, especially the IUI attempt rank. It is logical that, with more IUI attempts, the age advances. For this reason, Aydin et al. [68] could find no significant effect of female age on the clinical pregnancy rate in the first IUI cycle. Indeed, the rank attempt is determinant for IUI success. In our study, pregnancy rates and live births decreased significantly with the rank of insemination p = and p < resp. from rank 4 for both parameters p = see Table 6. Hendin et al. [67] and Merviel et al. [30] obtained 97% and 80%, respectively, of clinical pregnancies in their first three attempts. Plosker et al. [69] advocated a passage in IVF after three failed cycles of IUI. However, Soria et al. [15] demonstrated that from the fourth IUI cycle clinical pregnancy is negatively affected, which confirms our Blasco et al. [62] proved that the number of previous IUI cycles of the patient did not show a positive association with the cycle outcome in any of the developing steps of the models. In our study, IUI attempt rank did not have a clear correlation with clinical outcomes in different COS groups, but it did show a negative correlation with live-birth rates for patients with PCOS, unexplained infertility and male factor Tables ​3 and ​5. This could be explained by the evidence of severity of infertility type throughout time with an accumulation of IUI attempt failures, while IUI as a simple technique is less efficient than other ART techniques in achieving a clinical pregnancy. Particularly for infertile couples with male factor, the sperm quality becomes the determinant for IUI success [11, 70, 71], which was shown in our findings with a positive correlation of sperm concentration Table 5. It would be difficult to determine a universal threshold for sperm concentration, and each centre should define a threshold for its population and laboratory [72]. Nevertheless, Belaisch-Allart et al. [73] and Sakhel et al. [74] determined a sperm concentration cut-off at 10 × 106/mL and 5 × 106/mL, respectively. Indeed, the impact of semen quality was weak in our study, except for concentrations <5 × 106/mL, which remains nonsignificant due to small numbers of patients 8% of included population Table 6Sperm motility also appeared as a key factor in the study of Merviel et al. [30], where the pregnancy rate declined from 41% to 19% when the sperm motility was less than 70%. In our multivariable analysis with a sperm motility cut-off at 40%, we did not find any significant correlation with IUI clinical outcomes even with a large population size. This observation is reported also by Stone et al. [75].However, the TMS cut-off at 1 × 106, which was present in 21% of the included infertile patients, was a significant predictor of IUI clinical pregnancy Table 6. This finding was confirmed by two studies [9, 10] while others determined a higher threshold of TMS at 2 × 106 [68]; 3 × 106 [62, 76]; 5 × 106 [11, 77]; 10 × 106 [63, 78]. Indeed, the IUI clinical outcomes were improved with higher TMS, from × 106 to 12 × 106 [38]. Furthermore, regarding the sperm parameters, TMS was found to be an independent factor for clinical pregnancy after IUI in accordance with many authors [28, 63, 74, 77, 79–81]. However, Ozkan et al. [82] found just a minimal influence of TMS on the IUI success after TMS is a key factor for choosing IUI treatment or IVF, although a TMS threshold value of 5 × 106 to 10 × 106 has been reported as the criterion for undergoing IVF. Nevertheless, other sperm parameters could be better predictors of sperm morphology [58]. Although the predictive weakness of conventional sperm parameters for ART clinical outcomes has been demonstrated, sperm genome decay tests [83] could become a strong diagnostic tool to achieve clinical pregnancy for infertile couples undergoing homologous predictive factors for success have been found in some studies, such as duration of infertility, body mass index [15, 60, 82, 84, 85], and smoking [37], which were not regularly noted in our records and, therefore, could not be ConclusionThis study, is in concordance with our preliminary work [86] and demonstrate that there is no significant difference in clinical outcomes between different COS protocols rFSH, uFSH, or hMG and infertility types, even after taking into account the usual prognostic factors, including the female's age, the IUI attempt rank, and the sperm quality. However, unexplained infertility had a significant impact on IUI success, which revealed the need to look for more efficient ART strategies. Furthermore, since the fourth IUI attempt or with the female aged over 40 years, clinical pregnancy declined in IUI. Regarding the sperm quality, TMS with a threshold of 5 × 106 seemed a good predictor for IUI success. Indeed, over the obtained cut-off of the chosen indicators, other ART techniques might be more favourable for IVF live-birth infertile patients with male factor, sperm concentration was a determinant to achieve pregnancy, which necessitated some additional tests, such as sperm genome decay tests, before undergoing IUI and reviewing the couple's etiological factors for antioxidant prescriptions.

Par Sami A. Aldeeb Abu-Sahlieh[1] On trouve des interdits alimentaires partout dans le monde, et ces interdits diffĂšrent d’un groupe social Ă  l’autre, mĂȘme si parfois ils se recoupent. Rares sont les gens qui sont omnivores. Nous ne parlerons pas ici des spĂ©cificitĂ©s rĂ©gionales des diffĂ©rents groupes ethniques ou nationaux, mais des interdits qui peuvent ĂȘtre considĂ©rĂ©s comme communs aux trois communautĂ©s religieuses monothĂ©istes en vertu de considĂ©rations religieuses. Nous signalons aux lecteurs et aux lectrices que cet article est provisoire. Il est mis sur internet avec l'espoir de profiter de leurs observations constructives et bienveillantes afin d'amĂ©liorer son contenu et sa forme. On peut me contacter par email Chapitre I Interdits alimentaires chez les juifs Les interdits alimentaires chez les juifs trouvent leurs sources dans la Bible, complĂ©tĂ©e par la Mishnah et le Talmud[2]. Les aliments permis sont appelĂ©s de nos jours aliments cacher, c'est-Ă -dire adĂ©quats, propres Ă  la consommation. Le terme cacher est utilisĂ© pour d'autres choses que les aliments. Ainsi on dit un tĂ©moin cacher lorsqu'il remplit les conditions lĂ©gales, et un rouleau de la Torah cacher lorsqu'il est sans faute[3]. La Bible parle d'animal pur tahor et d'animal impur tame, termes que nous utilisons dans ce texte. Les normes juives relatives aux interdits alimentaires peuvent ĂȘtre rĂ©sumĂ©es comme suit Les mammifĂšres terrestres Ne sont considĂ©rĂ©s comme purs que les animaux ruminants ayant des sabots fourchus Dt 146. La Bible en nomme dix expressĂ©ment le bƓuf, le mouton, la chĂšvre, le cerf, la gazelle, le daim, le bouquetin, l'antilope, l'oryx et le mouflon. Dt 144-5. Tous les autres mammifĂšres Ă  qui il manque une de ces caractĂ©ristiques ou les deux sont impurs, donc interdits. C’est le cas du chameau, du lapin et du daman qui ruminent mais n'ont pas de sabots fourchus, et du porc qui a le sabot fourchu mais ne rumine pas Dt 147-8. La Bible nomme dans cette derniĂšre catĂ©gorie 42 animaux impurs. Les oiseaux Les oiseaux sont purs Ă  l'exception de 24 espĂšces considĂ©rĂ©es impures dont la liste est compilĂ©e Ă  partir du Lv 1113-19 qui en nomme 20 et Dt 1412-18 qui en nomme 21, entre autres l'aigle, l'autruche, le pĂ©lican, la cigogne, le hibou, etc. Dans la pratique sont considĂ©rĂ©s comme purs les oiseaux domestiques poule, caille, canard, oie, etc. et comme impurs les oiseaux sauvages et en particulier les oiseaux de proie. Il n'est pas aisĂ© aujourd'hui d'identifier tous ces oiseaux interdits. Aussi, certains canards et pigeons sont consommĂ©s aprĂšs identification de l'espĂšce par un connaisseur[4]. Le faisan est considĂ©rĂ© comme pur par la communautĂ© juive allemande, et impur par les autres. Les oeufs des oiseaux impurs sont impurs. Le Talmud donne comme indice pour les oeufs impurs le fait qu'ils soient ronds. Les animaux aquatiques Ne sont purs que les animaux aquatiques qui ont des nageoires et des Ă©cailles Lv 119-12. Tous les poissons Ă  qui il manque soit nageoires, soit Ă©cailles ou les deux ainsi que tous les crustacĂ©s, les coquillages, les fruits de mer sont impurs. L’espadon a posĂ© problĂšme. Les SĂ©pharades le permettent, alors que les AshkĂ©nazes d'Angleterre l'interdisent Toutes les autres espĂšces Toutes les autres espĂšces comme les rongeurs, les reptiles, les batraciens, les insectes et les invertĂ©brĂ©s sont impures. La Bible cependant excepte quatre sortes de sauterelles comestibles Lv 1122. Mais il est difficile de les identifier aujourd'hui[5]. Et bien que l'abeille soit un animal interdit, son miel peut ĂȘtre mangĂ©. Les produits de la terre Les produits de la terre sont purs, Ă  l'exception des fruits dits orlah d’un arbre pendant les trois premiĂšres annĂ©es Lv 1923 et une portion dite halah de pain ou de gĂąteau prĂ©parĂ© avec une de cinq cĂ©rĂ©ales blĂ©, orge, Ă©peautre, avoine et seigle, portion remise alors aux prĂȘtres. La maĂźtresse de maison prĂ©lĂšve un petit morceau de pain et de gĂąteau et le brĂ»le[6]. Les boissons Les jus de fruits et de lĂ©gumes, tout comme les fruits et les lĂ©gumes, sont propres Ă  la consommation. Le lait des animaux purs, comme le lait de vache, est autorisĂ© alors que le lait des animaux impurs, comme le lait d’ñnesse, est interdit. Le vin et les alcools Ă  base de vin comme le cognac est un produit pur et peut ĂȘtre consommĂ©. Mais la Torah interdit l'usage et la consommation des boissons Ă  base de raisin ou d'alcool de raisin, et tout produit du pressoir qui n'auraient pas Ă©tĂ© fabriquĂ©s sous le contrĂŽle d'un rabbin compĂ©tent, ou qui auraient Ă©tĂ© manipulĂ©s par un non-juif. Ceci s'Ă©tend jusqu'au vinaigre, l'huile de pĂ©pins de raisins ou le sucre de raisins[7]. On doit cependant signaler que le LĂ©vitique interdit aux prĂȘtres de consommer le vin ou autre boisson fermentĂ©e quand ils viennent Ă  la Tente du Rendez-vous, quand ils sĂ©parent le sacrĂ© et le profane, l'impur et le pur, et quand ils font connaĂźtre aux IsraĂ©lites n'importe lequel des dĂ©crets que YahvĂ© a Ă©dictĂ©s par l'intermĂ©diaire de MoĂŻse Lv 109. Dans ÉzĂ©chiel il est demandĂ© au prĂȘtre de ne pas boire du vin "le jour oĂč il entrera dans le parvis intĂ©rieur" Ez 448. Il est aussi question de vƓux temporaires ou perpĂ©tuels de ne pas boire du vin voir Nb 63-4; Jg 137 et 14 et Lc 115. Si un non-juif touche certains produits purs, ces produits deviennent impurs et donc inconsommables. Moshe Menuhin, pĂšre du fameux violoniste Yehudi Menuhin, rapporte que la maison de son grand-pĂšre dans la colonie juive de Bokhara en Palestine Ă©tait ouverte aux Gentils lors d'une PĂąque juive. On leur a dressĂ© une table sĂ©parĂ©e. Menuhin ajoute DĂšs que les invitĂ©s Ă©trangers furent partis, il grand-pĂšre alla jusqu'Ă  la table des invitĂ©s et, avec un sourire, prit toutes les bouteilles de vin qui avaient Ă©tĂ© ouvertes il y en avait un bon nombre, les emporta dehors et les vida dans le caniveau. Quelques-unes des bouteilles Ă©taient presque pleines et je ne comprenais pas un tel gaspillage. Je demandai "Quel mal les goyim ont-ils fait au vin?" Grand-pĂšre sourit et expliqua que, selon le code des lois juives, tout vin ouvert par un goy devenait yayin nesech, du vin paĂŻen et par consĂ©quent imbuvable[8]. Yediot Ahranot, journal israĂ©lien en hĂ©breu, rapporte qu'en avril 2000 le Grand rabbinat en IsraĂ«l a ordonnĂ© aux fermiers juifs, sous menace de ne pas leur livrer le certificat de puretĂ©, de jeter environ millions de litres de lait dont le prix est estimĂ© Ă  $ millions. La raison on avait dĂ©couvert que des non-juifs Gentils avaient Ă©tĂ© impliquĂ©s dans la production du lait. Ce lait a Ă©tĂ© alors jetĂ© dans les caniveaux. Le site Internet Sound Vision, site musulman, qui rapporte cette information, la commente en disant qu’on aurait souhaitĂ© que ce lait ait Ă©tĂ© donnĂ© Ă  ceux qui sont supposĂ©s l’avoir souillĂ©. Jusqu’à maintenant on savait seulement que selon la loi Hindoue de Manu Smirti la nourriture devenait souillĂ©e par le toucher d’une personne appartenant Ă  la caste des intouchables[9]. Les aliments sacrificiels aux idoles Pour que les animaux purs et le vin restent purs, il ne faut pas qu'ils soient dĂ©diĂ©s aux libations d'un culte idolĂątre. La consommation d'un tel aliment sacrificiel est assimilĂ©e Ă  une participation Ă  ce culte Ex 2219[10]. De ce fait, la fabrication du vin doit ĂȘtre contrĂŽlĂ©e par un juif depuis le dĂ©but jusqu'Ă  la fin. Le sang La consommation du sang est interdite "car le sang c'est l'Ăąme et tu ne dois pas manger l'Ăąme avec la chair" Dt 1223; voir aussi Gn 94; Lv 1712-14. De ce fait, l'animal doit ĂȘtre Ă©gorgĂ© pour le vider de son sang, et ensuite sa viande est salĂ©e deux fois et rincĂ©e avec de l'eau trois fois pour supprimer toute trace de sang. On peut aussi recourir au grillage de la viande directement sur la flamme, et le jus ne peut alors ĂȘtre rĂ©cupĂ©rĂ©. Le foie ne peut ĂȘtre vidĂ© de son sang que par cette mĂ©thode, comme certains autres abats. Comme consĂ©quence de cette norme, il est interdit de consommer un membre d’un animal vivant Gn 94. La bĂȘte morte et l'abattage Est liĂ©e Ă  la norme prĂ©cĂ©dente l'interdiction de manger les mammifĂšres et les oiseaux morts de mort naturelle ou abattus de façon non rituelle Dt 1421; Ex 2230. Celui qui viole cette interdiction doit se purifier Lv 1715 et 228; Ez 414. L’abattage rituel consiste au moyen d’un couteau parfaitement aiguisĂ© Ă  trancher, le plus rapidement possible et en causant le minimum de souffrances Ă  l’animal, la trachĂ©e-artĂšre, l’Ɠsophage, la veine jugulaire et la carotide. Le boucher doit ĂȘtre juif. La Bible prĂ©voit de donner la viande d'une bĂȘte morte aux chiens Ex 2230 ou de la donner ou la vendre aux non-juifs Dt 1421. On y reviendra. Seuls les poissons et les sauterelles n'ont pas besoin d'ĂȘtre abattus rituellement. Le boucher doit enlever le suif graisse de l'animal, jadis interdit Ă  la consommation car il faisait partie des sacrifices au Temple de JĂ©rusalem Lv 419. Il en est de mĂȘme du nerf sciatique Gn 3233. Et comme il est difficile d'enlever ce nerf on a dĂ©cidĂ© de renoncer Ă  la consommation du quartier arriĂšre de tous les mammifĂšres. Le nerf sciatique des oiseaux n'est pas enlevĂ©.. L'animal abattu doit ĂȘtre parfait, ni malade, ni blessĂ© Ex 2230; Lv 1715, ni castrĂ©. L'abattage est suivi d'un examen anatomique de la bĂȘte, et toute lĂ©sion est discutĂ©e pour savoir si elle rend ou non l'animal impropre Ă  la consommation. Selon les normes juives, ne peuvent ĂȘtre abattus que des animaux ayant certains critĂšres de santĂ©, et Ă  ce titre l'anesthĂ©sie prĂ©alable par Ă©lectrocution, ou l'Ă©tourdissement Ă  la masse ou au pistolet sont incompatibles avec l'abattage rituel[11]. Nous verrons lorsque nous parlerons des musulmans que de telles normes sont discutables. La chasse N'ayant pas trouvĂ© d'information dans les livres sur la chasse, j'ai posĂ© la question suivante sur Internet Est-ce qu'un Juif peut s'adonner Ă  la chasse des oiseaux ou des autres animaux terrestres avec quels moyens? et les manger lorsqu'il s'agit d'oiseaux et d'animaux permis? Un rabbin m'a rĂ©pondu Un juif ne peut s'adonner Ă  la chasse pour deux raisons essentielles - L'animal consommĂ© doit ĂȘtre tuĂ© rituellement, c'est-Ă -dire la gorge tranchĂ©e par une lame sans dĂ©faut. - Il est interdit de causer une souffrance quelque soit Ă  un animal[12]. Un autre rabbin m'a donnĂ© une rĂ©ponse aussi catĂ©gorique Pour consommer un animal, nous devons obligatoirement le tuer rituellement. Le chasser pour le manger n'est donc pas autorisĂ©[13]. Un troisiĂšme rabbin m'a donnĂ© des informations plus nuancĂ©es dont je cite l'extrait suivant Un auteur du 17Ăšme siĂšcle, le "Noda Biyehouda" rĂ©sume la rĂ©ponse en trois points Chasser pour le plaisir et non pour se nourrir contrevient Ă  trois rĂšgles - L'interdiction de faire souffrir les animaux, dĂ©coulant de l'obligation de dĂ©charger un animal ployant sous sa charge Exode 23, 5. - L'interdiction de dĂ©truire quoi que ce soit si ce n'est dans un but constructif, dĂ©coulant de DeutĂ©ronome 20, 19. - La chasse est une des particularitĂ©s d'ÉsaĂŒ et de Nemrod, grands chasseurs de la Bible. Il ne sied pas aux descendants d'Abraham, Isaac et Jacob de suivre le mode de vie de ces deux cĂ©lĂ©britĂ©s qui ayant commencĂ© par chasser le gibier en sont venus Ă  chasser les femmes puis Ă  tuer les hommes sans aucune pitiĂ©. C'est pourquoi les Juifs n'ont jamais Ă©tĂ© connus pour ĂȘtre des chasseurs. Dans le mĂȘme ordre d'idĂ©es, la pĂȘche n'est permise que pour s'en nourrir et non "pour le plaisir". Il est attendu d'un juif respectant la Torah d'autres plaisirs que la chasse et la pĂȘche l'Ă©tude, la pratique des Commandements, et notamment la bontĂ© envers les individus et la totalitĂ© des crĂ©atures de Dieu. Et comment chasser pour manger? Il est clair que chasser au fusil ou Ă  l'arc, voire les piĂšges agressifs peuvent rendre l'animal interdit soit en le tuant, et le rendant interdit, soit en portant des lĂ©sions graves qui le rendent impropres Ă  l'abattage rituel nĂ©cessaire. Il reste les filets pour attraper les animaux permis Ă  la consommation[14]. Le mĂ©lange de viande et de lait Il est interdit de mĂ©langer la viande et ses dĂ©rivĂ©s et le lait et ses dĂ©rivĂ©s comme le fromage et le beurre en raison du verset rĂ©pĂ©tĂ© trois fois Tu ne feras pas cuire un chevreau dans le lait de sa mĂšre » Ex 2319 et 3426, et Dt 1421. Il est interdit de cuire, de consommer ou profiter d’une nourriture qui comporte un tel mĂ©lange. Pour cela le juif qui veut observer les normes alimentaires doit avoir deux vaisselles une vaisselle pour les plats carnĂ©s et une autre pour les plats lactĂ©s. Cette vaisselle, prĂ©fĂ©rablement de diffĂ©rente couleur, est lavĂ©e et gardĂ©e sĂ©parĂ©ment. La volaille est assimilĂ©e Ă  la viande, mais les poissons peuvent ĂȘtre cuits dans le lait et mangĂ©s dans les deux vaisselles. Une troisiĂšme vaisselle dite parve neutre sert Ă  des aliments qui ne sont ni carnĂ©s ni lactĂ©s[15]. AprĂšs avoir consommĂ© des laitages on attend une demi-heure Ă  une heure pour consommer des viandes, parfois six heures aprĂšs la consommation de certains fromages Ă  pĂąte dure, ou cuite. AprĂšs la viande on attend six heures pour consommer du lait, le temps de digestion Ă©tant estimĂ© plus long. On peut cependant rĂ©duire ces dĂ©lais pour des malades ou des nourrissons en cas de besoin[16]. Le lait et la viande et leurs dĂ©rivĂ©s entrent, sĂ©parĂ©ment ou conjointement dans diffĂ©rents produits. Si les normes juives concernant ces deux produits ne sont pas respectĂ©es, l'aliment devient interdit. C'est le cas par exemple du pain dans lequel on ajoute de la graisse animale ou lactique, et qui plus est, les levures de panification sont fabriquĂ©es Ă  partir d'un alcool vinique qui les rend interdit. C'est le cas aussi des produits pour enfants[17]. Les aliments du sabbat et de PĂąque Un aliment consommĂ© lors du sabbat doit ĂȘtre cuit dans le respect des normes du sabbat. Ce jour-lĂ , il est interdit de faire 39 sortes de travail, dont allumer du feu Ex 353. Pour ne pas violer cette norme, on allume le feu une heure avant le dĂ©but du sabbat et on le laisse allumĂ© tout le sabbat jusqu’au lendemain. On peut consommer la nourriture mise sur le feu avant le sabbat[18]. De mĂȘme, il est interdit de consommer du levain pendant les huit jours de PĂąque Ex 1215, 19 et 20. Il existe aussi une vaisselle particuliĂšre pour PĂąque afin qu'il n'y ait aucune trace de levain[19]. Les aliments des non-juifs Plusieurs normes juives excluent le non-juif de la prĂ©paration des aliments purs. Nous tirons les citations suivantes d'un texte d'un rabbin publiĂ© sur Internet - "La Torah a interdit l'usage et la consommation de ... tous produits du pressoir qui n'auraient pas Ă©tĂ© fabriquĂ©s sous le contrĂŽle d'un rabbin compĂ©tent, ou qui auraient Ă©tĂ© manipulĂ©s par un non juif ". - "Il est d'usage que l'allumage du four ou des plaques soit fait par un juif, juif conscient de l'importance de la Mitzvah commandement religieux en guise de participation Ă  la prĂ©paration des mets". - "On ne consomme que des laitages traits ou prĂ©parĂ©s en prĂ©sence d'un juif. Cet usage remonte Ă  l'Ă©poque oĂč se vendait du lait d'Ăąnesse, de truie ou de chamelle. Il est restĂ© de rĂšgle dans de nombreuses communautĂ©s. Les fromages doivent Ă©galement ĂȘtre Ă©laborĂ©s sous surveillant rabbinique pour exclure l'usage de prĂ©sure d'origine interdite". - "Les ustensiles de cuisine et les services de table doivent ĂȘtre immergĂ©s dans un MikvĂ© bain rituel lorsqu'ils ont Ă©tĂ© fabriquĂ©s ou vendus par des non juifs. Et ce mĂȘme s'ils n'ont jamais Ă©tĂ© utilisĂ©s" - "Nos sages ont recommandĂ© de ne pas donner un nourrisson Ă  une nourrice non juive"[20]. - Est interdite "la consommation ou toute autre utilisation au bĂ©nĂ©fice du vin des non juifs, mĂȘme lorsque celui-ci est produit ou utilisĂ© Ă  d'autres fins qu'un rite religieux paĂŻen. Pourquoi? Les raisons sont simples, l'une d'elles est que tout en gardant des relations de respect mutuel dans nos relations de travail ou de vie sociale dans l'État avec nos voisins non-juifs, nous devons nous prĂ©server d'amitiĂ© trop proche qui risquerait, Dieu nous en prĂ©serve, de nous conduire Ă  des mariages mixtes ou Ă  une assimilation avec des adeptes d'une autre foi. Cette interdiction s'Ă©tend Ă©galement sur le vin produit ou manipulĂ© par des non juifs ou par des juifs qui ont reniĂ© ou se sont Ă©cartĂ©s de la Torah et des Mitsvot commandements religieux". Le vin pur "doit ĂȘtre produit, depuis les toutes premiĂšres Ă©tapes de la mise du raisin en cuve jusqu'Ă  sa mise en bouteille, par un juif observant, et n'ĂȘtre, Ă  aucun moment, manipulĂ© par un non-juif"[21]. La nĂ©cessitĂ© fait loi En cas de nĂ©cessitĂ©, notamment en cas de maladie mortelle, et dont le seul traitement serait l'absorption de nourritures ou de mĂ©dicaments Ă  base d'ingrĂ©dients impurs, les lois alimentaires s'effacent totalement. Devant une maladie moins grave, et lorsqu'on a le choix thĂ©rapeutique, on s'efforcera de choisir des mĂ©dicaments aux composants permis. Les voies autres qu'orales, injections, suppositoires, pommades, spray ne posent par contre aucun problĂšme[22]. Les raisons des interdits alimentaires La seule justification avancĂ©e par la Bible concernant les animaux est "de sĂ©parer le pur de l'impur" Lv 1147. Une preuve parmi tant d'autres que la Bible, livre sacrĂ© chez les juifs, les chrĂ©tiens et les musulmans, vĂ©hicule une conception raciste[23]. Ce concept de la puretĂ© est clair dans les deux versets suivants Vous serez pour moi des hommes saints. Vous ne mangerez pas la viande d’une bĂȘte dĂ©chiquetĂ©e par un fauve dans la campagne, vous la jetterez aux chiens Ex 2230. Vous ne pourrez manger aucune bĂȘte crevĂ©e. Tu la donneras Ă  l'Ă©tranger qui rĂ©side chez toi pour qu'il la mange, ou bien vends-la Ă  un Ă©tranger du dehors. Tu es en effet un peuple consacrĂ© Ă  YahvĂ© ton Dieu Dt 1421. Sur Internet, un rabbin Ă©crit Ă  propos des interdits alimentaires "L'Ă©viction des animaux impurs doit donner Ă  l'homme une puretĂ© de l'esprit, sensible dans ses pensĂ©es, ses paroles et ses actions". Ce document ajoute "La dĂ©finition des animaux impurs Ă©mane de la seule volontĂ© du CrĂ©ateur. Elle ne se prĂ©occupe ni avec des critĂšres sanitaires, ni des qualitĂ©s nutritionnelles"[24]. Cela n'a pas empĂȘchĂ© certains d'avancer au cours des siĂšcles, des explications, notamment pseudo-mĂ©dicales, aussi nombreuses que peu vraisemblables, Ă  but apologĂ©tique Dieu sait ce qui est bon pour nous et la meilleure preuve de cette bontĂ© est que les aliments interdits sont mauvais pour la santĂ©. Ainsi MaĂŻmonide Ă©crit que "tous les aliments que la Loi nous a dĂ©fendus forment une nourriture malsaine". Il explique que le porc est interdit parce qu'il "est malpropre et qu'il se nourrit de choses malpropres... Si l'on se nourrissait de la chair des porcs, les rues et mĂȘme les maisons seraient plus malpropres que les latrines, comme on le voit maintenant dans le pays des Francs". Quant aux graisses des entrailles, elles "sont trop nourrissantes, nuisent Ă  la digestion et produisent du sang froid trĂšs Ă©pais; c'est pourquoi il convient plutĂŽt de les brĂ»ler". En ce qui concerne la distinction faite entre les animaux ruminants Ă  sabots fourchus et les autres animaux, et entre les poissons ayant des nageoires et des Ă©cailles et les autres poissons, il estime que ces diffĂ©rences sont des signes "qui servent Ă  faire reconnaĂźtre la bonne espĂšce et la distinguer de la mauvaise"[25]. Certains pensent que les nombreuses rĂšgles visaient Ă  encourager le vĂ©gĂ©tarisme. On fait remarquer que deux rĂ©bellions contre MoĂŻse sont liĂ©es directement au dĂ©sir de consommer de la viande Ex 163 ; Nb 1120. Dieu n’a permis la consommation de la viande qu’en raison de la faiblesse humaine. On estime aussi que le vĂ©gĂ©tarisme empĂȘche les ĂȘtres humains de s’attaquer les uns les autres comme les animaux[26]. Philon d'Alexandrie estime que l'interdiction de manger des animaux fĂ©roces vise Ă  ce que les hommes ne se comportent pas comme eux[27]. On a aussi cherchĂ© des raisons historiques. Ainsi l'interdiction du porc aurait Ă©tĂ© Ă©dictĂ©e par le fait qu'il s'agissait d'un animal sacrificiel voir Is 653-5, 663 et 17, qu'il Ă©tait un animal sacrĂ©, l’incarnation du Dieu Attis en Asie mineure, et identifiĂ© Ă  Osiris et Seth chez les Égyptiens, ou qu'il Ă©tait l'emblĂšme de la lĂ©gion romaine en Palestine. Ces hypothĂšses prouvent que l'interdiction du porc Ă©tait en rĂ©action aux rites paĂŻens ou pour des raisons politiques[28]. AprĂšs avoir expliquĂ© la raison hygiĂ©nique de l'interdiction de manger de la viande cuite dans du lait, MaĂŻmonide avance l'argument que cette interdiction pourrait aussi ĂȘtre liĂ©e au fait qu'on en mangeait dans une certaine cĂ©rĂ©monie idolĂątre, ou Ă  l'une des fĂȘtes des paĂŻens. Il invoque ici le fait que cette interdiction figure Ă  cĂŽtĂ© du prĂ©cepte relatif au pĂšlerinage Ex 2317-19[29]. Les interdits alimentaires entre loi et pratique Il ne semble pas que les interdits alimentaires aient toujours Ă©tĂ© observĂ©s par le passĂ©. Mais les milieux religieux juifs ont toujours insistĂ© sur ces interdits. IsaĂŻe fulmine d'ailleurs contre ceux qui violent ces interdits "Ceux... qui mangent de la chair de porc, des choses abominables et du rat, d'un mĂȘme coup finiront, oracle de YahvĂ©, leurs actions et leurs pensĂ©es" Is 6617. ÉzĂ©chiel dit que "depuis mon enfance jusqu'Ă  prĂ©sent, jamais je n'ai mangĂ© de bĂȘte crevĂ©e ou dĂ©chirĂ©e, et aucune viande avariĂ©e ne m'est entrĂ©e dans la bouche" Ez 414. Le premier livre des MaccabĂ©es dit que du temps du roi grec de Syrie Antiochus Épiphane il y avait un mouvement juif qui voulait s'intĂ©grer aux autres nations et abandonner les lois religieuses. Ce qui provoqua la colĂšre des milieux juifs. Un des aspects de cette assimilation est l'abandon de la circoncision et des interdits alimentaires. Mais "plusieurs en IsraĂ«l se montrĂšrent fermes et furent assez forts pour ne pas manger des mets impurs. Ils acceptĂšrent de mourir plutĂŽt que de se contaminer par la nourriture" I M 62. Voir aussi II M chap. 6 et 7. On lit dans le livre de Tobie "Lors de la dĂ©portation en Assyrie, quand je fus emmenĂ©, je vins Ă  Ninive. Tous mes frĂšres, et ceux de ma race, mangeaient les mets des paĂŻens; pour moi, je me gardais de manger les mets des paĂŻens" Tb 110-11. Dans les temps modernes, les juifs rĂ©formĂ©s n'insistent pas sur les interdits alimentaires. Lors du congrĂšs de Pittsburgh nov. 1885 les juifs rĂ©formĂ©s ont dĂ©clarĂ© Les lois alimentaires viennent d’époques et d’idĂ©es totalement Ă©trangĂšres Ă  notre Ă©tat mental et spirituel
 Les observer de nos jours contribuera Ă  diminuer plutĂŽt qu’à encourager une Ă©lĂ©vation spirituelle moderne»[30]. Mais les juifs orthodoxes et conservateurs continuent toujours Ă  prĂȘcher et Ă  appliquer ces normes. Chaque fois qu'elles le peuvent, leurs autoritĂ©s religieuses n'hĂ©sitant pas Ă  recourir Ă  des moyens coercitifs usant de leur privilĂšge de dĂ©livrer des certificats de puretĂ©. Ce que nous avons vu Ă  propos des millions de litres de lait, que les fermiers israĂ©liens ont dĂ» jeter parce que manipulĂ©s par des non-juifs, se produit dans tous les domaines de l'alimentation, de la restauration et de l'hĂŽtellerie. Dans certains pays, ces autoritĂ©s ont le monopole, reconnu par l'État, de la certification de puretĂ©, sur laquelle elles perçoivent une taxe. Chapitre II Interdits alimentaires chez les chrĂ©tiens L'abolition presque totale des interdits Les interdits religieux juifs ont Ă©tĂ© pour la plus part abolis par les chrĂ©tiens. On trouve une Ă©bauche de cette abolition chez JĂ©sus qui dĂ©clara Il n'est rien d'extĂ©rieur Ă  l'homme qui, pĂ©nĂ©trant en lui, puisse le souiller, mais ce qui sort de l'homme, voilĂ  ce qui souille l'homme", Ă  savoir "les desseins pervers". Et Marc de commenter "ainsi il dĂ©clarait purs tous les aliments" Mc 715, 19-22. La communautĂ© chrĂ©tienne s'est heurtĂ©e dĂšs ses dĂ©buts aux interdits alimentaires juifs. Ainsi, des chrĂ©tiens d'origine juive ont reprochĂ© Ă  Pierre d'avoir acceptĂ© l'in­vitation de Corneille, un centurion romain "Pourquoi, lui demandĂšrent-ils, es-tu entrĂ© chez des incirconcis et as-tu mangĂ© avec eux?" Ac 113. Pierre connaissait une telle interdiction, et l'a rappelĂ©e Ă  son hĂŽte "Vous le savez, il est absolument interdit Ă  un juif de frayer avec un Ă©tranger ou d'entrer chez lui. Mais Dieu vient de me montrer, Ă  moi, qu'il ne faut appeler aucun homme souillĂ© ou impur" Ac 1028. Paul nous apprend que Pierre, "avant l'arrivĂ©e de certaines gens de l'entourage de Jacques, ... prenait ses repas avec les paĂŻens; mais quand ces gens arrivĂšrent, on le vit se dĂ©rober et se tenir Ă  l'Ă©cart, par peur des circoncis" Ga 212. Si les chrĂ©tiens d’origine juive ont continuĂ© Ă  observer les interdits alimentaires bibliques, la conversion des paĂŻens au christianisme a amenĂ© les apĂŽtres Ă  limiter ces interdits. Ainsi le livre des Actes des apĂŽtres nous rapporte une vision de Pierre Il voit le ciel ouvert et un objet, semblable Ă  une grande nappe nouĂ©e aux quatre coins, en descendre vers la terre. Et dedans il y avait tous les qua­drupĂšdes et les reptiles, et tous les oiseaux du ciel. Une voix lui dit alors "Allons, Pierre, immole et mange". Mais Pierre rĂ©pondit "Oh non! Seigneur, car je n'ai jamais rien mangĂ© de souillĂ© ni d'impur!" De nouveau, une seconde fois, la voix lui parle "Ce que Dieu a purifiĂ©, toi, ne le dis pas souillĂ©". Cela se rĂ©pĂ©ta par trois fois, et aussitĂŽt l'objet fut remportĂ© au ciel Ac 1011-16. Lors du premier concile tenu Ă  JĂ©rusalem par les ApĂŽtres, il fut dĂ©cidĂ© de limiter ces interdits au minimum. Ils adressĂšrent aux convertis non-juifs ce qui suit L'Esprit Saint et nous-mĂȘmes avons dĂ©cidĂ© de ne pas vous imposer d'autres charges que celles-ci, qui sont indispensables vous abstenir des viandes immolĂ©es aux idoles, du sang, des chairs Ă©touffĂ©es et des unions illĂ©gitimes. Vous ferez bien de vous en garder Ac 1528-29. On remarquera ici que ce concile a aboli aussi l'obligation de la circoncision. Pour les juifs, les non circoncis Ă©taient considĂ©rĂ©s comme impurs et par consĂ©quent ils ne devaient pas les frĂ©quenter. DĂ©sormais, on peut ĂȘtre chrĂ©tien et aspirer au salut sans devoir ĂȘtre circoncis ou observer les interdits alimentaires juifs. La question de ces interdits revient dans les Ă©pĂźtres de St. Paul. Celui-ci Ă©tablit une rĂšgle large en matiĂšre de nourriture dans sa premiĂšre Ă©pĂźtre aux Corinthiens, tout en Ă©vitant de faire scandale. Il Ă©crit Tout ce qui se vend au marchĂ©, mangez-le sans poser de question par motif de conscience; car la terre est au Seigneur, et tout ce qui la remplit Ps 241. Si quelque infidĂšle vous invite et que vous acceptiez d'y aller, mangez tout ce qu'on vous sert, sans poser de question par motif de conscience. Mais si quelqu'un vous dit "Ceci a Ă©tĂ© immolĂ© en sacrifice", n'en mangez pas, Ă  cause de celui qui vous a prĂ©venus, et par motif de conscience. Par conscience j'entends non la vĂŽtre, mais celle d'autrui; car pourquoi ma libertĂ© relĂšverait-elle du jugement d'une conscience Ă©trangĂšre? Si je prends quelque chose en rendant grĂące, pourquoi serais-je blĂąmĂ© pour ce dont je rends grĂące I Co 102530. La Bible de JĂ©rusalem commente l'avant-derniĂšre phrase comme suit "Il faut agir ainsi pour respecter la conscience erronĂ©e de l'autre, non pour se soumettre Ă  son jugement faux"[31]. Dans cette mĂȘme Ă©pĂźtre, Paul permet mĂȘme de manger de la viande immolĂ©e aux idoles parce que "nous savons qu'une idole n'est rien dans le monde et qu'il n'est de Dieu que le Dieu unique". Mais il demande de s'en abstenir devant une personne faible qui croit qu'il est interdit de manger de la viande immolĂ©e aux idoles afin de ne pas le scandaliser et de ne pas le pousser Ă  enfreindre sa propre conscience. Pour Paul, la science en soi ne suffit pas "la science enfle", alors que "la charitĂ© Ă©difie". "C'est pourquoi, si un aliment doit causer la chute de mon frĂšre, je me passerai de viande Ă  tout jamais, afin de ne pas causer la chute de mon frĂšre" I Co chap. 8 Dans son Ă©pĂźtre aux Romains, il Ă©crit Tel croit pouvoir manger de tout, tandis que le faible ne mange que des lĂ©gumes que celui qui mange ne mĂ©prise pas l'abstinent et que l'abstinent ne juge pas celui qui mange; Dieu l'a bien accueilli. Toi, qui es-tu pour juger un serviteur d'autrui?... Je le sais, j'en suis certain dans le Seigneur JĂ©sus, rien n'est impur en soi, mais seulement pour celui qui estime un aliment impur; en ce cas il l'est pour lui... Le rĂšgne de Dieu n'est pas affaire de nourriture ou de boisson, il est justice, paix et joie dans l'Esprit Saint Rm 142-4, 14 et 17. L'interdiction de consommer du sang, aujourd'hui tombĂ©e en dĂ©suĂ©tude, Ă©tait respectĂ©e par les chrĂ©tiens. Tertullien d. 222? en parle dans ses Ă©crits[32]. Aussi tard qu'en 692, le Concile in Trullo Constantinople interdit la consommation de toute nourriture contenant du sang, sous peine d'excommunication pour les peuples et de destitution pour les prĂȘtres[33]. L'interdiction du cheval On trouve des interdits alimentaires religieux chez les chrĂ©tiens Ă  travers les siĂšcles. Ainsi Ă  l'Ă©poque mĂ©rovingienne 8Ăšme siĂšcle le pape GrĂ©goire III et son successeur Zacharie 1er jettent l'anathĂšme sur la viande de cheval. Cette position visait en fait Ă  Ă©carter les Germains paĂŻens des banquets chevalins impies immolĂ©s au culte d'Odin. Toutes les fois qu'un scandinave, mĂȘme converti, mange de l'Ă©quidĂ©, il fait allĂ©geance Ă  son ancienne croyance et donc renie la foi chrĂ©tienne. Le sacrifice paĂŻen est la vraie raison de l'interdit alimentaire. Pour dĂ©truire la mĂ©moire, le clergĂ© fait regarder cette viande comme impure et ceux qui en usent comme immondes. Plus tard, l'Ă©vangĂ©lisation ancrĂ©e, l'effet survit Ă  la cause tombĂ©e progressivement dans l'oubli. La viande n'est plus impure, abominable au point de vue religieux, cependant elle reste dans l'esprit des gens, un aliment malsain ou tout au moins hors du commun. Elle ne fut rĂ©introduite qu'Ă  la retraite de Russie oĂč il fallait l'avaler. Et aujourd'hui les boucheries chevalines ferment les unes aprĂšs les autres Ă  la suite des campagnes de protection des animaux[34]. L'abstinence Les chrĂ©tiens sont censĂ©s observer une abstinence de la viande les jours de vendredi et du carĂȘme, norme de moins en moins respectĂ©e, alors que jadis la violation de cette norme Ă©tait sĂ©vĂšrement punie. Et aujourd'hui on constate un glissement de l'interdit religieux aux normes diĂ©tĂ©tiques on s'abstient de certains aliments pour garder sa ligne au lieu de sauver son Ăąme[35]. Les groupes chrĂ©tiens observant des interdits alimentaires Certains groupes religieux chrĂ©tiens continuent Ă  observer des interdits alimentaires bibliques. C'est notamment le cas des Adventistes qui recommandent une nourriture ovo-lacto-vĂ©gĂ©tarienne et le respect des interdits bibliques sur les animaux. Ils estiment en effet que "la distinction entre les animaux purs et impurs date de l'Ă©poque de NoĂ©, longtemps avant l'existence d'IsraĂ«l. En tant que principes de santĂ©, ces lois diĂ©tĂ©tiques sont toujours valables". De plus, ils recommandent de s'abstenir de fumer fumer c'est se suicider lentement, et donc contre le commandement "Tu ne tueras point" Ex 2013 et de consommer des aliments contenant de la thĂ©ine, de la cafĂ©ine et de l'alcool. Pour la sainte scĂšne ils utilisent le jus de raisin au lieu du vin. Bien qu'ils s'abstiennent de manger du sang boudin, etc., ils ne s'opposent pas Ă  la transfusion sanguine comme le font les TĂ©moins de JĂ©hovah[36]. Les Mormons n'observent pas les interdits bibliques sur les animaux mais recommandent de ne pas consommer du sang boudin, etc.. Par contre, ils s'abstiennent de fumer et de consommer des aliments contenant de la thĂ©ine, de la cafĂ©ine et de l'alcool[37]. Les TĂ©moins de JĂ©hovah n'observent pas les interdits bibliques sur les animaux et boivent du vin, mais ils interdisent la consommation du sang et la transfusion sanguine, tout comme ils interdisent de fumer invoquant St. Paul "Bien-aimĂ©s, purifions-nous de toute souillure de la chair et de l'esprit" I Co 71. Bien que tous ces trois groupes soient opposĂ©s Ă  la consommation du sang Ă  des degrĂ©s divers, ils n'exigent pas l'abattage rituel tel que pratiquĂ© par les juifs. De mĂȘme, ils ignorent la norme biblique qui interdit de mĂȘler la viande au lait. Il y a aussi des ordres religieux comme les Chartreux qui font de la privation constante de toute viande un point fondamental de leur rĂšgle. On lit dans le chapitre 7 des Statuts de l'Ordre des Chartreux Selon une observance introduite par nos premiers pĂšres et toujours gardĂ©e avec un soin particulier, nous avons renoncĂ© Ă  l'usage de la viande. C'est en effet un trait caractĂ©ristique de l'Ordre et un signe de l'austĂ©ritĂ© Ă©rĂ©mitique en laquelle, Dieu aidant, nous voulons demeurer[38]. On peut donc conclure que les chrĂ©tiens, si l'on excepte des groupes mineurs, ne connaissent pas d'interdits alimentaires religieux. Et si aujourd'hui les chrĂ©tiens occidentaux ne mangent pas de rats ou de chiens, ceci relĂšve plus des coutumes culinaires que d'interdits religieux. Chapitre III Interdits alimentaires chez les musulmans La position des musulmans constitue un retour presque complet aux interdits juifs, interdits Ă©noncĂ©s dans le Coran, les rĂ©cits de Mahomet et les ouvrages des lĂ©gistes. Nous exposons ici ces interdits en nous basant notamment sur les ouvrages arabes modernes sunnites. Ces auteurs ne se rĂ©fĂšrent pratiquement jamais aux Ă©crits chiites. Pour les complĂ©ter, nous nous sommes rĂ©fĂ©rĂ©s aussi Ă  des ouvrages chiites lorsque leurs normes diffĂšrent de celles des sunnites. Signalons ici que les auteurs musulmans classiques classifient les aliments principalement en diffĂ©rentes catĂ©gories - halal licite aliment qu'on peut consommer. - haram illicite interdit de le consommer. - mubah permis sa consommation est laissĂ©e au choix de la personne. - makruh rĂ©prouvable, rĂ©pugnant bien que non interdit, il est prĂ©fĂ©rable de ne pas en consommer. On trouve sur Internet des listes de produits classifiĂ©s en halal, haram et mashbuh suspect. Ces listes disent qu'il faudrait s'abstenir de consommer les produits suspects. Le principe est la licĂ©itĂ©, sans gaspillage Dieu a mis Ă  la disposition des ĂȘtres humains tous les animaux et tous les fruits de la terre pour qu'il puisse s'en servir. Mais il doit Ă©viter le gaspillage. 260 Mangez et buvez de ce que vous a attribuĂ© Allah. 2168 Hommes! Mangez ce qui est licite et bon parmi ce qui est sur la terre! 2172 O vous qui croyez! Mangez ces excellentes nourritures que Nous vous avons attribuĂ©es! 6142 C'est Lui qui a fait croĂźtre des jardins, en treilles et non en treilles, les palmiers, les cĂ©rĂ©ales donnant une nourriture variĂ©e, les oliviers et les grenadiers semblables ou dissemblables. Mangez de leurs fruits, quand ils produisent! Donnez le droit les frappant, au jour de la rĂ©colte, et ne soyez point gaspilleurs, car Allah n'aime point les gaspilleurs! 7160 Mangez des excellentes nourritures que Nous vous avons attribuĂ©es! 2081 Mangez des nourritures exquises dont Nous vous avons gratifiĂ©s! Toutefois ne faites point d'excĂšs en cela, sinon Ma colĂšre s'abattra sur vous! Il est interdit de tuer un animal licite pour un autre but que de le manger[39]. La chasse pour s'amuser et non pas pour se nourrir est condamnĂ©e par les lĂ©gistes musulmans[40]. L'interdit est dĂ©cidĂ© par Dieu Le Coran insiste sur le fait que l'homme n'a pas le droit de dĂ©clarer un aliment illicite. Seul Dieu peut le faire 587 O vous qui croyez! Ne dĂ©clarez pas illicites les excellentes nourritures qu'Allah a dĂ©clarĂ©es licites pour vous. 16116 Ne dites donc point, Ă  propos de ce que vos bouches profĂšrent mensongĂšrement "Ceci est licite et ceci est illicite", dans le but de forger le mensonge contre Allah. Ceux qui forgent le mensonge contre Allah ne seront pas les Bienheureux. Ce que Dieu dĂ©clare comme illicite est immonde, et ce qu'il dĂ©clare comme licite est bon 7157 Il leur ordonne le Convenable et leur interdit le BlĂąmable, qui dĂ©clare licites pour eux les excellentes nourritures, et illicites les immondes. Dieu est libre dans sa dĂ©cision et il n'est pas comptable de sa dĂ©cision 51 Licite est pour vous la bĂȘte de troupeaux, sauf celles dont Ă©numĂ©ration vous est communiquĂ©e. Ne considĂ©rez point comme licite le gibier tuĂ© alors que vous ĂȘtes sacralisĂ©s! Allah dĂ©cide ce qu'Il veut. 2123 Il ne Lui est pas demandĂ© compte de ce qu'Il fait alors qu'il leur est demandĂ© compte de ce qu'ils font. Les interdits des juifs ne s'appliquent pas aux musulmans Le Coran parle de certains interdits alimentaires en vigueur chez les Arabes avant l'islam, interdits qu'il abroge parce qu'il les considĂšre comme inspirĂ©s par le dĂ©mon 2168-169 Hommes! Mangez ce qui est licite et bon parmi ce qui sur la terre! Ne suivez point les pas du DĂ©mon! C'est pour vous un ennemi dĂ©clarĂ©; il vous ordonne seulement le Mal, la Turpitude et de dire, contre Allah, ce que vous ne savez pas. 6138-139 Les Impies ont dit "Voici des troupeaux et une rĂ©colte qui sont tabous. Ne s'en nourriront", prĂ©tendent-ils, "que ceux que nous voudrons." Ce sont des chameaux qu'il est illicite de monter et des bĂȘtes de troupeaux sur lesquelles n'est point profĂ©rĂ© le nom d'Allah, en forgerie contre Lui. Allah les "rĂ©compensera" de ce qu'ils ont forgĂ©. Les Impies ont dit "Ce qui est dans le ventre de ces bĂȘtes de troupeaux est pur pour nos mĂąles et illicites pour nos Ă©pouses. Si c'est une bĂȘte morte, ils se la partagent."Allah les "rĂ©compensera" de ce qu'ils dĂ©bitent. voir aussi 5103; 6143-144. Le Coran ne dit rien des interdits alimentaires chez les chrĂ©tiens. Mais l'interdiction de la chair d'une bĂȘte morte, du sang, et de ce qui a Ă©tĂ© consacrĂ© Ă  un autre qu'Allah dans les versets 2173, 53, 6145, 16115 citĂ©s plus loin est sans doute inspirĂ©e du livre des Actes des apĂŽtres voir Ac 1528-29 susmentionnĂ©s. Une telle formulation ne se trouve pas dans l'Ancien Testament. Le Coran n'a fait qu'y ajouter l'interdiction du porc, soit dans le but de gagner les juifs Ă  sa cause, soit parce que certains chrĂ©tiens d'Arabie d'origine juive observaient une telle interdiction[41]. L'interdiction du porc a certainement facilitĂ© la conversion de juifs Ă  l'islam, tout comme l'abolition de l'interdiction de manger du porc et l'abolition de l'obligation de la circoncision ont facilitĂ© la conversion des paĂŻens au christianisme Ă  ses dĂ©buts. Ainsi les interdits religieux ont fait l'objet de marchandage subtil. Le Coran, par contre, s'attarde longuement sur les interdits alimentaires chez les juifs. Il estime qu'avant la rĂ©vĂ©lation de la Torah, tout aliment Ă©tait licite. IsraĂ«l Jacob? s'est ensuite interdit certains de ces aliments 393 Tout aliment Ă©tait licite pour les Fils d'IsraĂ«l, sauf ce qu'IsraĂ«l s'est dĂ©clarĂ© illicite Ă  soi-mĂȘme avant qu'on fĂźt descendre la Torah Dieu est aussi intervenu pour interdire aux juifs des aliments pour les punir 4160-161 Nous avons dĂ©clarĂ© illicites, pour ceux qui pratiquent le JudaĂŻsme, des nourritures excellentes dĂ©clarĂ©es licites, Ă  l'origine, pour eux, et cela en prix d'avoir Ă©tĂ© iniques, de s'ĂȘtre tant Ă©cartĂ©s du Chemin d'Allah, d'avoir pratiquĂ© l'usure qui leur a Ă©tĂ© interdite, d'avoir mangĂ© le bien des gens au nom du Faux. 6146 A ceux qui pratiquent le JudaĂŻsme, Nous avons dĂ©clarĂ© illicite toute bĂȘte Ă  ongles. Des bovins et des ovins, Nous avons pour eux, dĂ©clarĂ© illicites les graisses, sauf celle que porte leur dos et leurs entrailles ou ce qui est mĂȘlĂ© aux os. Cette interdiction est la "rĂ©compense" de leur rĂ©bellion. On remarquera Ă  cet Ă©gard que la Bible ne comporte pas une telle norme. Ailleurs le Coran dit que Dieu n'avait interdit aux juifs que ce qu'il a interdit aux musulmans. S'ils ont ajoutĂ© Ă  ces interdits d'autres aliments, c'est par leur propre dĂ©cision 16118 A ceux qui pratiquent le JudaĂŻsme, Nous avons interdit ce que Nous t'avons Ă©numĂ©rĂ© tout Ă  l'heure. Nous ne les avons point lĂ©sĂ©s ce sont eux qui se sont lĂ©sĂ©s eux-mĂȘmes. Les musulmans ne doivent donc pas suivre les interdictions des juifs, mais celles que Dieu leur indique. MalgrĂ© cela, on peut constater que les juifs et les musulmans ont des interdits alimentaires communs, comme c'est le cas pour le porc, la bĂȘte morte, le sang et les aliments sacrificiels offerts aux idoles. Certains aliments cependant sont interdits pour les juifs, alors qu'ils sont permis pour les musulmans, comme c'est le cas du lapin et du chameau. Le contraire est aussi vrai, comme c'est le cas du vin permis aux juifs et interdit aux musulmans. D'autre part, les musulmans ne connaissent pas l'interdiction de mĂ©langer la viande au lait. Enfin, les juifs n'admettent pas de manger de la viande d'un animal Ă©gorgĂ© par un non-juif, alors que les musulmans, au moins les sunnites, permettent de manger de la viande d'un animal Ă©gorgĂ© par un non-musulman Ă  condition qu'il appartienne aux gens du livre. Pourquoi le Coran rejette-t-il certains interdits juifs alors qu'il en conserve d'autres? Probablement pour ne pas se heurter Ă  des coutumes culinaires arabes. On peut en effet mal imaginer le Coran interdire la consommation de la viande du chameau. La volontĂ© de se dĂ©marquer des juifs aprĂšs avoir Ă©chouĂ© dans sa tentative de s'y approcher pourrait aussi avoir jouĂ© un rĂŽle. On signalera Ă  cet Ă©gard l'interdiction faite au musulman de ressembler au non-musulman. On cite ici un rĂ©cit de Mahomet qui dit "Celui qui ressemble Ă  un groupe en fait partie"[42]. On cite aussi les deux versets coraniques suivants 6153 Tel est, en toute droiture, mon chemin; suivez-le donc! Ne suivez pas les chemins qui vous Ă©loigneraient du chemin de Dieu. 5919 Ne ressemblez pas Ă  ceux qui oublient Dieu; Dieu fait qu'ils s'oublient eux-mĂȘmes. Ceux-lĂ  sont les pervers. Certains juristes classiques vont jusqu'Ă  prĂ©voir la peine de mort contre ceux qui ressemblent aux mĂ©crĂ©ants et refusent de se rĂ©tracter[43]. Le systĂšme des interdits alimentaires coraniques pose les juifs comme de mauvais fidĂšles contrairement aux musulmans qui se rattachent Ă  la religion authentique[44]. Comme nous l'avons fait pour les juifs, nous donnons ici les catĂ©gories des aliments interdits et permis chez les musulmans. Les bĂȘtes terrestres Les musulmans ne connaissent pas la distinction juive entre animaux mammifĂšres ruminants Ă  sabots fourchus, considĂ©rĂ©s comme purs, et les autres animaux mammifĂšres jugĂ©s impurs. De ce fait, les interdits sont moins structurĂ©s. Nous commençons par les bĂȘtes terrestres. Le porc Il est interdit expressĂ©ment par le Coran dans diffĂ©rents versets qui constituent la base des interdits alimentaires chez les musulmans, versets que nous citons ici intĂ©gralement une fois pour toutes 2173 Allah a seulement dĂ©clarĂ© illicite pour vous la chair d'une bĂȘte morte, le sang, la chair de porc et ce qui a Ă©tĂ© consacrĂ© Ă  un autre qu'Allah. Mais quiconque est contraint Ă  en manger sans intention d'ĂȘtre rebelle ou transgresseur, nul pĂ©chĂ© ne sera sur lui. 53 Illicites ont Ă©tĂ© dĂ©clarĂ©s pour vous la chair de la bĂȘte morte, le sang, la chair du porc et de ce qui a Ă©tĂ© consacrĂ© Ă  un autre qu'Allah, la chair de la bĂȘte Ă©touffĂ©e, de la bĂȘte tombĂ©e sous des coups, de la bĂȘte morte d'une chute ou d'un coup de corne, la chair de ce que les fauves ont dĂ©vorĂ© - sauf si vous l'avez purifiĂ©e -, la chair de ce qui est Ă©gorgĂ© devant les pierres dressĂ©es. 6145 Dans ce qui m'est rĂ©vĂ©lĂ©, je ne trouve rien d'illicite pour qui se nourrit d'une nourriture, Ă  moins que cette nourriture soit une bĂȘte morte, ou un sang rĂ©pandu, ou de la viande de porc, car c'est une souillure, ou ce qui a Ă©tĂ© consacrĂ© Ă  un autre qu'Ă  Allah. Mais quiconque est contraint Ă  en manger sans intention d'ĂȘtre rebelle ou transgresseur, ton Seigneur est seul absoluteur envers lui et misĂ©ricordieux. 16115 Allah a seulement dĂ©clarĂ© illicite pour vous la chair d'une bĂȘte morte, le sang, la chair du porc et ce qui a Ă©tĂ© consacrĂ© Ă  un autre qu'Allah. Mais quiconque est contraint Ă  en manger sans intention d'ĂȘtre rebelle ou transgresseur, Allah sera absoluteur envers lui et misĂ©ricordieux. Les lĂ©gistes estiment gĂ©nĂ©ralement que tout ce qui fait partie du porc est interdit sa viande, sa graisse, ses os, sa peau, et ses poils. Pour eux, le porc est en soi une souillure selon le verset 6145. Mais Ibn-Hazm dit que le Coran n'interdit que la viande du porc; le reste doit donc ĂȘtre permis[45]. Les malikites considĂšrent les poils du porc comme purs, Ă  condition de ne pas ĂȘtre arrachĂ©s, mais il faut les laver. Les hanbalites permettent d'en faire un tamis Ă  condition qu'elle soit utilisĂ©e pour tamiser des produits secs[46]. Les bĂȘtes de troupeau Si nous partons des quatre versets coraniques susmentionnĂ©s, on peut dire que le Coran n'interdit que quatre aliments le porc, le sang, la bĂȘte morte et les aliments offerts aux idoles. Par consĂ©quent, hors ces quatre interdits, il n'y a pas d'autres interdits. Mais en fait les lĂ©gistes, Ă  travers une interprĂ©tation de certains versets coraniques et en invoquant des rĂ©cits de Mahomet souvent contradictoires, ont tentĂ© d'Ă©largir la liste des interdits et de prĂ©ciser ce qui est licite, sans toutefois se mettre d'accord entre eux. Parmi les animaux licites, les lĂ©gistes ont considĂ©rĂ© comme licites les bĂȘtes qui entrent dans la catĂ©gorie d'an'am, bĂȘtes de troupeaux, Ă  savoir les ovins, les bovins et les chameaux. Le Coran dit 6143 Il a mis pour vous, en vos troupeaux, portage et vĂȘture. Mangez de ce qu'Allah vous a attribuĂ©! 3671-73 Eh quoi! N'ont-ils pas vu que Nous avons créé pour eux, parmi ce que Nos mains façonnĂšrent, des troupeaux dont ils sont les possesseurs? Nous leur avons soumis ces animaux dont ils font leurs montures et d'oĂč ils tirent leur nourriture. Pour eux sont lĂ  utilitĂ©s et breuvages. Eh quoi! Ne seront-ils pas reconnaissants? 165 Les chameaux ont, par Lui, Ă©tĂ© créés pour vous. Pour vous s'y trouvent vĂȘture et utilitĂ©s et nourriture dont vous mangez. Les Ă©quins Les Ă©quins comprennent le cheval, le mulet et l'Ăąne. Le Coran dit de ces trois animaux 168 Il a créé le cheval, le mulet, l'Ăąne pour que vous les montiez et comme apparat. Or ce verset, contrairement au verset sur les bĂȘtes de troupeaux, ne dit pas que ces trois animaux servent pour s'en nourrir. D'autre part, on cite des rĂ©cits de Mahomet selon lesquels il aurait interdit d'en manger. C'est la position de certains juristes, dont Abu-Hanifah. Mais l'opinion dominante considĂšre la viande du cheval et de l'Ăąne sauvage comme licite du fait que Mahomet et ses compagnons en auraient mangĂ©[47]. Par contre, l'Ăąne domestique et le mulet sont interdits sauf pour les malikites qui les considĂšrent soit comme licites, soit comme rĂ©prouvables[48]. Les animaux prĂ©dateurs Ă  canines Selon l'opinion dominante, la viande de tout animal ayant des canines dont il se sert pour attaquer d'autres animaux comme le lion, le tigre ou le loup est illicite. On cite ici des rĂ©cits de Mahomet qui interdisent d'en manger. Certains Malikites cependant le permettent du fait que le Coran n'en fait pas mention parmi les aliments interdits. Malik est cependant d'avis qu'il est rĂ©prouvable d'en manger[49]. Les lĂ©gistes sont partagĂ©s concernant la viande de certains animaux qui ont des canines, comme l'hyĂšne[50], le renard, l'ours[51], le chat domestique et sauvage[52], l'Ă©lĂ©phant[53] et le singe[54]. Des juristes disent qu'il est permis d'en manger, d'autres y sont opposĂ©s, et d'autres enfin permettent avec rĂ©pugnance. Les rongeurs Les lĂ©gistes font des distinctions selon les animaux. Ainsi le rat est interdit alors que le hĂ©risson et le porc-Ă©pic sont permis selon l'opinion dominante[55]. Le lapin, animal interdit chez les juifs, est licite chez la majoritĂ© des lĂ©gistes musulmans. Ils se basent sur des rĂ©cits selon lesquels Mahomet aurait acceptĂ© et mangĂ© de la viande de lapin[56]. Certains compagnons, invoquant des rĂ©cits de Mahomet, ont considĂ©rĂ© qu'il est rĂ©prouvable de manger du lapin. Mahomet aurait dit que le lapin a des rĂšgles et de ce fait il ne le mange pas mais il ne l'interdit pas non plus[57]. Les insectes et les vers Les lĂ©gistes permettent de manger les sauterelles ainsi que les vers dans les fruits[58]. Les oiseaux Les oiseaux sont en principe licites. L'opinion dominante interdit cependant de manger les oiseaux rapaces ayant des griffes, mais certains permettent de les manger du fait qu'ils ne figurent pas dans les aliments interdits mentionnĂ©s par le Coran. L'opinion dominante interdit aussi de manger la chauve-souris, mammifĂšre volant, mais certains juristes permettent de la manger avec rĂ©pugnance[59]. Les animaux aquatiques Le Coran permet de manger des animaux qui vivent dans l'eau 596 Licites ont Ă©tĂ© dĂ©clarĂ©s pour vous le gibier sic de la mer et la nourriture qui s'y trouve jouissance pour vous et pour les voyageurs. 1614 C'est Lui qui a assujetti la mer pour que vous mangiez une chair fraĂźche issue d'elle. 3512 Les deux mers ne sont point identiques. L'eau de celle-ci est potable, douce, agrĂ©able Ă  boire, alors que l'eau de celle-lĂ  est saumĂątre, non potable. De chacune vous pĂȘchez une chair fraĂźche que vous mangez. L'opinion dominante chez les chiites suit la classification biblique, ne permettant que les animaux qui ont des Ă©cailles[60]. Les chiites ne parlent pas de nageoires comme la Bible probablement du fait que tout poisson Ă  Ă©cailles a des nageoires. Les lĂ©gistes sunnites ont divergĂ© sur les animaux aquatiques licites et ceux illicites. On peut rĂ©sumer leur position comme suit - Tous les juristes sont d'accord sur le fait que le poisson mort pour une raison apparente en se battant, Ă  cause d'une forte vague, a reçu un coup de bĂąton, ou a Ă©tĂ© jetĂ© par l'eau sur la plage est licite. - Si le poisson est mort sans raison apparente, la majoritĂ© le considĂšre comme licite sauf les hanafites qui le considĂšrent comme illicite. - Si l'animal aquatique n'est pas un poisson ou ne ressemble pas Ă  un poisson, les hanafites le considĂšrent comme illicite et les autres comme licite sauf si exclu expressĂ©ment comme la grenouille, ou exclu Ă  cause de sa nature venimeuse comme l'anguille, de son agressivitĂ© comme le crocodile, ou de son immondice comme la tortue de mer. Et si un animal vit en partie dans l'eau et une partie sur terre, il doit ĂȘtre Ă©gorgĂ© pour qu'il devienne licite. - Certains lĂ©gistes estiment qu'un animal aquatique ressemblant Ă  un animal terrestre interdit est aussi interdit de le manger. C'est le cas du dauphin appelĂ© porc de mer, le requin appelĂ© chien de mer, l'anguille appelĂ© serpent de mer. Certains estiment que le dauphin est interdit pour les gens qui le nomment porc de mer, et permis pour ceux qui le nomment par un autre nom[61]. Les animaux se nourrissant de dĂ©tritus Si un animal licite se nourrit de dĂ©tritus, l'opinion dominante dit qu'on ne peut le manger qu'aprĂšs une pĂ©riode de quarantaine dans laquelle on le nourrit d'aliments propres pour que sa viande ne soit plus contaminĂ©e par ce qu'il mange. Cette pĂ©riode varie entre trois et quarante jours[62]. Les gibiers dans le pĂšlerinage Bien que la chasse soit permise, le Coran interdit de chasser du gibier pendant la pĂ©riode de pĂšlerinage. 52 Une fois dĂ©sacralisĂ©s, vous ĂȘtes libres de chasser.... Quand vous ĂȘtes dĂ©sacralisĂ©s, livrez-vous Ă  la chasse! 595 O vous qui croyez! Ne tuez pas de gibier alors que vous ĂȘtes sacralisĂ©s! Quiconque parmi vous en tuera intentionnellement devra ou bien une compensation Ă©gale Ă  la bĂȘte de troupeau qu'il tue en offrande consacrĂ©e Ă  la Kaaba - deux hommes intĂšgres parmi vous en jugeront -, ou bien son rachat sera la nourriture d'un pauvre, ou bien, Ă  dĂ©faut, un jeĂ»ne Ă©quivalent Ă  cela. Tout cela est fait pour que le pĂ©cheur goĂ»te le chĂątiment de son geste. 596 Illicite a Ă©tĂ© dĂ©clarĂ© pour vous le gibier de la terre ferme, aussi longtemps que vous ĂȘtes sacralisĂ©s. Soyez pieux envers Allah vers qui vous serez rassemblĂ©s! Cette interdiction s'applique aussi aux oeufs du gibier. Les animaux Ă  tuer ou interdit de tuer Mahomet a ordonnĂ© de tuer certains animaux comme le serpent, le corbeau, le rat, le chien qui agresse et le dab sorte de lĂ©zard, et il a interdit de tuer certains autres comme la grenouille, la fourmi, l'abeille, la huppe, la pie griĂšche, la perdrix et la chauve-souris. Ces deux catĂ©gories ne peuvent pas ĂȘtre mangĂ©es. Mais certains juristes disent que ce qui peut ĂȘtre tuĂ© devrait ĂȘtre comestible. Les animaux morts et l'abattage Le Coran interdit de manger la chair d'une bĂȘte morte dans les versets 2173; 6145; 16115 et 53 susmentionnĂ©s. Ce dernier y ajoute "la chair de la bĂȘte Ă©touffĂ©e, de la bĂȘte tombĂ©e sous des coups, de la bĂȘte morte d'une chute ou d'un coup de corne, la chair de ce que les fauves ont dĂ©vorĂ© - sauf si vous l'avez purifiĂ©e". Un animal mort est celui qui est dĂ©cĂ©dĂ© sans cause humaine, ou par un moyen jugĂ© illicite comme par exemple en le battant jusqu'Ă  la mort. Le gibier mort par la chasse est licite mĂȘme s'il n'a pas Ă©tĂ© Ă©gorgĂ©, sauf s'il y a eu possibilitĂ© de l'Ă©gorger mais ne l'a pas Ă©tĂ©. S'il est nĂ©cessaire d'immoler l'animal avant de le manger, une exception est faite pour les animaux aquatiques en vertu d'un rĂ©cit de Mahomet qui dit "Dieu a immolĂ© ce qui est dans la mer pour les fils d'Adam". Des lĂ©gistes cependant exigent que des animaux aquatiques qui vivent aussi hors de l'eau et qui ont du sang comme le crocodile soient Ă©gorgĂ©s. Il en est autrement du crabe qui n'a pas de sang. Les lĂ©gistes considĂšrent que le sang du poisson n'est pas vĂ©ritablement du sang puisqu'il devient blanc une fois sĂ©chĂ©, alors que le sang des autres bĂȘtes devient noir. La mĂȘme exception est faite pour les sauterelles qu'on peut manger si on les trouve mortes[63]. L'abattage de l'animal est rĂ©glementĂ© en droit musulman - Il faut prononcer le nom de Dieu sur l'animal vivant qu'on veut abattre pour le manger. Le Coran dit 6121 Ne mangez point de ce sur quoi n'a pas Ă©tĂ© profĂ©rĂ© le nom d'Allah! En vĂ©ritĂ©, c'est lĂ  perversitĂ©. 2236 Pour vous, Nous avons placĂ© les animaux sacrifiĂ©s, parmi les choses sacrĂ©es d'Allah. Un bien s'y trouve pour vous. Invoquez donc sur eux le nom d'Allah, quand ils ont eu la patte attachĂ©e. Puis, lorsqu'ils gisent sur le flanc, mangez-en et nourrissez-en l'impĂ©cunieux et le dĂ©muni. Cette rĂšgle s'applique aussi au gibier 54 Mangez aussi de ce que prennent pour vous ceux des oiseaux de proie que vous dressez, tels des chiens, selon les procĂ©dĂ©s qu'Allah vous a enseignĂ©s! ProfĂ©rez toutefois le nom d'Allah, sur leur prise. Si on ne prononce pas le nom de Dieu par oubli, la viande est licite, mais si c'est volontairement, la viande est illicite. Certains lĂ©gistes cependant considĂšrent la viande illicite dans les deux cas. Le nom de Dieu est prononcĂ© lorsqu'on passe le couteau sur le cou de la bĂȘte, et pour les gibiers chassĂ©s par des chiens, lorsqu'on envoie les chiens derriĂšre la bĂȘte. La raison pour laquelle on prononce le nom de Dieu sur la bĂȘte est de rendre sa viande meilleure et de chasser le diable de la bĂȘte et de celui qui l'abat[64]. - Le boucher doit ĂȘtre soit musulman, soit quelqu'un des gens du livre chrĂ©tien, juif, samaritain ou sabĂ©en. Il doit ĂȘtre majeur et capable de discernement, quel que soit son sexe. L'abattage effectuĂ© par un enfant ou un fou n'est pas valable. L'opinion dominante chez les chiites cependant n'accepte pas l'abattage par quelqu'un des gens du livre[65]. - L'abattage peut ĂȘtre en Ă©gorgeant l'animal dhabh dont le cou est court comme c'est le cas avec la vache, le mouton et l'oiseau, en portant le couteau Ă  la clavicule au bas du cou de l'animal nahr lorsque ce dernier a un long cou comme le chameau, ou en blessant l'animal aqara qu'on ne peut pas saisir comme c'est le cas du gibier ou d'un bƓuf agitĂ©. Égorger un animal consiste Ă  couper la trachĂ©e-artĂšre tube respiratoire, l’Ɠsophage tube digestif et les deux veines jugulaires intĂ©rieures et extĂ©rieures conduites du sang. - L'outil pour abattre l'animal peut ĂȘtre un couteau, une Ă©pĂ©e ou une lame pour les animaux qu'on Ă©gorge. Pour les gibiers et les animaux insaisissables, il peut ĂȘtre un outil blessant comme une lance ou un projectile. Dans les deux cas l'outil doit faire couler le sang. Si par contre on Ă©trangle un animal, ou on le tue par un choc ou en le battant, sa viande est illicite. Si un animal est tuĂ© par un coup de fusil et que le projectile transperce l'animal, sa viande est licite. Un tel animal n'a pas besoin d'ĂȘtre Ă©gorgĂ©. Mais s'il meurt Ă  cause du choc d'un caillou, d'un projectif ou du son de ce dernier, sa viande est illicite Ă  moins qu'on ne puisse atteindre l'animal encore en vie pour l'Ă©gorger. Pour que l'abattage de l'animal soit lĂ©gal, il faut donc qu'il intervienne sur un animal vivant et non pas mort[66]. - L'abattage de l'animal se fait prĂ©fĂ©rablement avec le visage du boucher et de l'animal tournĂ©s vers la Mecque[67]. Le but est de faire le contraire de ce que font les polythĂ©istes qui abattent leurs animaux en se tournant vers leurs idoles[68]. - Les musulmans, tout comme les juifs, se posent la question de savoir s'il est permis d'Ă©tourdir les animaux avant de les abattre pour rĂ©duire leur souffrance. Cette question, qui soulĂšve beaucoup de passions, se pose notamment dans les pays qui interdisent l'abattage rituel comme c'est le cas de la Suisse. En fait, les textes sacrĂ©s juifs et musulmans recommandent de faire souffrir l'animal le moins possible. D'autre part, ces textes n'abordent pas la question de l'Ă©tourdissement de l'animal. En revanche, ils interdisent de manger la viande d'un animal mort et exigent que cet animal soit vidĂ© de son sang. A tort, on a dĂ©duit de ces deux normes l'interdiction d'Ă©tourdir l'animal avant de le saigner en prĂ©textant que l'animal meurt en l'Ă©tourdissant et que son sang n'est pas vidĂ©. Or ces deux prĂ©textes ne sont pas valables. InvitĂ©e Ă  se prononcer concernant l'importation de viandes d'animaux Ă©tourdis avant d'ĂȘtre saignĂ©s, la Commission Ă©gyptienne de fatwa a dĂ©cidĂ© dĂ©jĂ  en 1978 qu'il est licite de manger de telles viandes. Elle a invoquĂ© le verset 7143 "Quand le Seigneur se manifesta Ă  la Montagne, Il la mit en miettes et MoĂŻse tomba foudroyĂ©". Or, dit la commission, MoĂŻse est tombĂ© Ă©vanoui sous le choc, sans pour autant perdre la vie[69]. D'autre part, la viande d'un animal vidĂ© de son sang et prĂ©alablement Ă©tourdi contient autant de sang que celle d'un animal Ă©gorgĂ© sans Ă©tourdissement prĂ©alable. On peut donc dire qu'on est en face d'un faux problĂšme, créé probablement pour des raisons Ă©conomiques. Un auteur signale que l'Association consistoire israĂ©lite de Paris a un budget annuel de l'ordre de 150 millions francs français. Environ la moitiĂ© provient du "droit de couteau"[70]. On multiplie les normes pour multiplier les leviers de commande et les taxes. Le sang Le Coran interdit de manger du sang dans les versets 2173; 53; 16115 et 6145 susmentionnĂ©s. Le dernier verset prĂ©cise "sang rĂ©pandu". Ceci signifie que le sang coulant d'un animal vivant ou mort est interdit, sauf le sang qui reste dans la viande d'un animal Ă©gorgĂ© parce qu'on ne peut pas Ă©viter ce sang. Les musulmans n'exigent donc pas de rincer et de saler la viande ou de la griller pour la vider du sang comme font les juifs. Un rĂ©cit de Mahomet excepte de l'interdiction du sang le poisson, la sauterelle dont nous avons parlĂ© plus haut, le foie et la rate. Ces deux organes sont considĂ©rĂ©s comme imbibĂ©s de sang et devaient donc ĂȘtre interdits, mais Mahomet a permis de les manger[71]. L'animal doit cependant ĂȘtre vidĂ© de son sang autant que possible. Un auteur Ă©gyptien estime que certains abattoirs occidentaux ne vident pas l'animal de son sang pour augmenter son poids et gagner plus[72]. Les parties des animaux autres que leur viande Les os et la peau des animaux sont purs si l'animal est pur et a Ă©tĂ© abattu selon les rĂšgles religieuses. Ceux des animaux impurs ou qui n'ont pas Ă©tĂ© mis Ă  mort selon les rĂšgles religieuses sont considĂ©rĂ©s comme impurs. Toutefois, les lĂ©gistes estiment que si la peau d'un animal pur mais mort d'une façon non conforme est tannĂ©e, cette peau devient pure. Mahomet aurait dit Ă  cet Ă©gard que ce qui est interdit est de manger de ces animaux morts, mais non pas d'utiliser leur peau. Quant Ă  la peau des animaux impurs, les lĂ©gistes sont partagĂ©s. Ainsi les hanafites permettent l'usage de la peau tannĂ©e du lion, du loup ou du chien. Mais on excepte la peau du rat et du porc. Nous avons parlĂ© plus haut du poil du porc dont l'utilisation est permise par certains lĂ©gistes. Il est par contre interdit de manger de la graisse prise Ă  un animal vivant pur comme celle prise de la bosse d'un chameau ou de la queue grasse de certaines espĂšces de moutons. Une telle partie est considĂ©rĂ©e comme provenant d'un animal mort[73]. Les oeufs des animaux licites sont licites. Ainsi on ne mangera pas des oeufs de tortue ou d'aigle ni on ne boira du lait d'Ăąnesse. De mĂȘme on ne consommera pas de lait ou des oeufs d'un animal nourri avec du dĂ©tritus avant qu'il n'ait observĂ© une quarantaine. Si on trouve des oeufs dont on ne connaĂźt pas l'animal, les lĂ©gistes estiment qu'on peut manger les oeufs dont les deux bouts sont diffĂ©rents conception qu'on trouve dans le Talmud ou les oeufs des poissons dont la coque est rugueuse[74]. Sont aussi interdites des parties de l’animal comme les organes gĂ©nitaux, les glandes, la vĂ©sicule partie dans laquelle s’accumule l’urine, la cholĂ©cystite, l’urine et les selles. Mais l’urine du chameau est permise comme mĂ©dicament. Les fruits de la terre Tous les fruits de la terre et des arbres sont licites. Le Coran dit 1669 Mangez en outre de tous les fruits et, dociles, empruntez les chemins de votre Seigneur! Du ventre des Abeilles sort une liqueur de diffĂ©rents aspects oĂč se trouve une guĂ©rison pour les Hommes. 3633 Un signe pour les Humains est la terre morte que Nous avons fait revivre, dont Nous avons fait sortir du grain dont ils mangent. 3634-35 Nous y avons placĂ© des jardins avec des palmiers et des vignes et y avons fait jaillir des sources, tout cela afin qu'ils mangent des fruits du Seigneur et de ce qu'ont fait leurs mains. Sont par contre interdits les produits qui portent prĂ©judice Ă  la santĂ© 2195 Ne vous exposez point Ă  votre perte, de vos mains! 7157 Il dĂ©clare licites pour eux les excellentes nourritures, et illicites les immondes. Ainsi il est interdit de manger un fruit venimeux. Il en est de mĂȘme de la drogue et du tabac comme on le verra dans le point suivant. Les boissons, la drogue et le tabac Sont licites les boissons ainsi que le lait des animaux qui sont considĂ©rĂ©s comme purs. Par contre, le lait des animaux impurs n'est pas licite, comme par exemple le lait des Ăąnesses. Fait exception le vin et les boissons alcoolisĂ©es qui en dĂ©coulent. L'interdiction du vin est passĂ©e par trois Ă©tapes. 2219 Les Croyants t'interrogent sur les boissons fermentĂ©es et le jeu de hasard. RĂ©ponds-leur "Dans les deux, sont pour les Hommes un grand pĂ©chĂ© et des utilitĂ©s, mais le pĂ©chĂ© qui est en eux est plus grand que leur utilitĂ©". 443 O vous qui croyez! N'approchez point de la PriĂšre, alors que vous ĂȘtes ivres, avant de savoir ce que vous dites! 590 O vous qui croyez! Les boissons fermentĂ©es, le jeu de hasard, les pierres dressĂ©es et les flĂšches divinatoires sont seulement une souillure procĂ©dant de l'Ɠuvre du DĂ©mon. Évitez-la! Peut-ĂȘtre serez-vous bienheureux. L'interdiction du vin est pratiquement le seul interdit qui a des consĂ©quences pĂ©nales en cas de sa violation, quelle que soit la quantitĂ© consommĂ©e et mĂȘme s'il n'y a pas eu ivresse. Un rĂ©cit de Mahomet dit "Ce dont beaucoup enivre son peu est interdit". Pour justifier cette interdiction du vin les lĂ©gistes disent que le vin est interdit non seulement parce qu'il peut enivrer, mais parce qu'il est un aliment impur en soi. De mĂȘme est interdit toute boisson enivrante, quel que soit le fruit utilisĂ© raisin, datte ou autres. Mais Ayshah dit que Mahomet buvait du nabith vin lĂ©gĂšrement fermentĂ© fait de dattes, orge ou autres grains macĂ©rĂ©s dans l’eau jusqu’à la fermentation[75]. Omar aurait aussi permis de couper le vin par l'eau et de le boire[76]. Certains lĂ©gistes, dont Abu-Hanifah, ont aussi dit que le vin provenant d'autres fruits que le raisin et la datte comme l'orge et le maĂŻs est interdit seulement dans la quantitĂ© qui enivre. Et selon Abu-Yusuf on ne punit le musulman que s’il est pris en flagrant dĂ©lit. Des musulmans au premier siĂšcle ont cru que le vin Ă©tait permis Ă  ceux qui font oeuvres pies, invoquant le verset 593 qui dit Il n'est pas de grief Ă  faire Ă  ceux qui croient et qui accomplissent des oeuvres pies pour ce qui touche ce qu'ils mangent, quand ils sont pieux, croient et accomplissent des oeuvres pies. Mais cette position est restĂ©e minoritaire[77]. L'interdiction faite de consommer de l'alcool s'Ă©tend aussi Ă  la drogue dans la mesure oĂč elle a le mĂȘme effet, voire un effet plus dangereux que l'alcool. On y joint aussi la consommation du tabac du fait qu'elle crĂ©e la dĂ©pendance, mĂšne au gaspillage inutile, porte atteinte Ă  la santĂ© et a mauvaise odeur. Le tabac tomberait ici sous le coup des versets 2195 et 7157 susmentionnĂ©s[78]. Les aliments sacrificiels pour une idole Le Coran interdit de manger un aliment "qui a Ă©tĂ© consacrĂ© Ă  un autre qu'Allah" dans les versets 2173; 6145; 16115 et 53 susmentionnĂ©s. Ce dernier verset ajoute Ă  cette interdiction "la chair de ce qui est Ă©gorgĂ© devant les pierres dressĂ©es". La nĂ©cessitĂ© fait loi Tous les aliments interdits deviennent licites en cas de nĂ©cessitĂ© pour sauvegarder la santĂ© et la vie. Le Coran dit 2173 Allah a seulement dĂ©clarĂ© illicite pour vous la chair d'une bĂȘte morte, le sang, la chair de porc et ce qui a Ă©tĂ© consacrĂ© Ă  un autre qu'Allah. Mais quiconque est contraint Ă  en manger sans intention d'ĂȘtre rebelle ou transgresseur, nul pĂ©chĂ© ne sera sur lui. On retrouve cette rĂšgle aussi dans les versets 6145. La nĂ©cessitĂ© dispense ici de l’application de la loi. On parle alors de dispense lĂ©gale ibahah, norme qu’on trouve dans pratiquement toutes les lĂ©gislations. Mais le musulman doit en consommer dans les limites de la nĂ©cessitĂ© et non pas pour s’en rĂ©galer et s’engouffrer. Le Coran permet de consommer et de boire des aliments interdits en cas de nĂ©cessitĂ© 53 afin de sauvegarder sa vie. Certains permettent une telle consommation si le musulman a passĂ© une nuit et un jour sans manger. On s’est aussi posĂ© la question combien il peut consommer jusqu’à conjurer le danger ou jusqu’à ne plus avoir faim et soif. On a aussi Ă©tabli des prioritĂ©s faut-il voler un aliment licite au lieu de consommer un aliment interdit? La rĂ©ponse est non. Peut-on manger de la chair humaine ? La rĂ©ponse est oui si c’est un mort, et non si c’est un vivant mĂȘme si ce dernier est passible de la peine de mort comme l’apostat ou le polythĂ©iste[79]. Selon la doctrine dominante, il est interdit de consommer du vin en cas de soif et dĂ©faut d'eau car le vin ne met pas fin Ă  la soif et peut mĂȘme l'augmenter. Mais il est permis d’user du vin comme mĂ©dicament s’il n’y pas d’autres moyens pour sauver la vie Ă  condition que la prescription du mĂ©dicament soit faite par un mĂ©decin musulman adl dont le tĂ©moignage est acceptable[80]. La transformation de l'aliment et sa contamination Un aliment licite peut devenir un aliment illicite, et le contraire est vrai. Ainsi le jus de fruit une fois fermentĂ© devient illicite. Le vin Ă  son tour peut se transformer en vinaigre qui est un aliment licite, mais certains estiment que cette transformation doit ĂȘtre faite sans manipulation[81]. Le cadavre est impur, mais quand il se dĂ©compose, il devient de la cendre pure. L'eau, aliment licite, devient de l'urine qui est un aliment interdit. De mĂȘme le lait est licite bien qu'il soit issu de deux aliments illicites, Ă  savoir le sang et la nourriture dĂ©composĂ©e dans le ventre 1666 En vĂ©ritĂ©, vous avez certes un enseignement dans vos troupeaux! Nous vous abreuvons d'un lait pur, exquis pour les buveurs, venant de ce qui, dans leurs ventres, est entre un aliment digĂ©rĂ© et du sang. Nous avons aussi vu qu'un animal qui se nourrit de dĂ©tritus devient pur aprĂšs avoir observĂ© une quarantaine. Pour juger si un aliment est devenu licite ou illicite, des lĂ©gistes se rĂ©fĂšrent au nom de l'aliment en question. Le vin, illicite, en devenant du vinaigre change de nom. Or le vinaigre ne figure pas dans la liste des aliments interdits. Il est donc licite. De mĂȘme le chien, animal impur, en tombant dans un marais salant se dĂ©compose et devient du sel pur. L'excrĂ©ment, matiĂšre impure, est mis dans un jardin et devient avec le temps de la terre qui est une matiĂšre pure servant Ă  se purifier en l'absence d'eau[82]. Si quelqu'un a eu des relations sexuelles avec un animal, cet animal devient impropre Ă  la consommation et doit ĂȘtre tuĂ© et brĂ»lĂ©, et selon certains rĂ©cits la personne en question doit aussi ĂȘtre tuĂ©e[83]. Si la viande licite entre en contact avec la viande illicite comme celle du porc, la viande licite devient contaminĂ©e et donc inconsommable. De mĂȘme si on utilise pour Ă©gorger ou dĂ©pecer l’agneau un couteau qui a servi Ă  Ă©gorger ou Ă  dĂ©pecer un porc. Si un rat tombe dans un vase d’huile, l’huile devient impure. Mais s’il tombe sur du beurre solide, seule la partie touchĂ©e doit ĂȘtre enlevĂ©e. L’eau qui a Ă©tĂ© lĂ©chĂ©e par un chien doit ĂȘtre jetĂ©e et le vase doit ĂȘtre lavĂ©, sauf pour les malikites qui considĂšrent le chien comme membre de la maison. Les produits composĂ©s de plusieurs ingrĂ©dients Tout produit qui contient un ingrĂ©dient interdit devient entiĂšrement interdit. Ceci s’applique aux aliments, aux additifs alimentaires et aux produits pharmaceutiques comme les vitamines. Il existe des listes indicatives sur Internet qui rĂ©pertorient les produits sur la base de leurs composantes, classifiĂ©s en halal licite, haram illicite et mashbuh suspect, et donc interdit. Ces listes indiquent parfois les composantes de ces produits et demandent au consommateur en cas de doute de prendre contact avec le producteur. En rĂšgle gĂ©nĂ©rale, tout produit qui contient du porc ou de l’alcool est interdit. Ainsi la gĂ©latine est considĂ©rĂ©e comme illicite si elle est produite du porc, et licite si elle est produite d’un autre animal licite Ă©gorgĂ© selon la mĂ©thode islamique. La vanille et son sous-produit la vanilline sont considĂ©rĂ©s comme illicites parce qu’elles sont produites avec de l’alcool. La vitamine E, si elle est produite d’un animal, elle est suspecte, mais elle est halal si elle est issue d’huile vĂ©gĂ©tale. Le cholestĂ©rol, la glycĂ©ride, les hormones et le petit lait sont considĂ©rĂ©s comme suspects[84]. On signale cependant que de telles listes ne jouent pas toujours du fait que les producteurs peuvent en tout temps changer les ingrĂ©dients. Les aliments des non-musulmans Le Coran dit 55 Aujourd'hui, licites sont pour vous les excellentes nourritures. La nourriture de ceux Ă  qui a Ă©tĂ© donnĂ©e l'Ă©criture est licite pour vous et votre nourriture est licite pour eux. Vous sont permises les femmes vertueuses d'entre les croyantes, et les femmes vertueuses d'entre les gens qui ont reçu le Livre avant vous, si vous leur donnez leurs douaires, avec contrat de mariage, non en dĂ©bauchĂ©s ni en preneurs d'amantes. 6118 Mangez donc de ce sur quoi a Ă©tĂ© profĂ©rĂ© le nom d'Allah. On remarquera du premier verset qu'il associe explicitement commensalitĂ© et intermariage. L'Ă©change matrimonial, sous une forme restreinte il est vrai un musulman peut Ă©pouser une non-musulmane scripturaire, mais un non-musulman scripturaire ne peut pas Ă©pouser une musulmane, est permis avec ceux avec lesquels l'Ă©change alimentaire est Ă©galement permis. L'opinion dominante chez les chiites n'accepte pas l'abattage par quelqu'un des gens du livre en se basant sur des rĂ©cits de leurs imams. Certains estiment en effet que le verset 55 concerne la nourriture autre que la viande[85]. Les chiites sont aussi plus rĂ©ticents que les sunnites quant au mariage entre un musulman et une scripturaire non-musulmane. Les sunnites permettent de manger de la viande d'un animal Ă©gorgĂ© par un non-musulman, Ă  condition qu'il soit scripturaire, Ă  savoir chrĂ©tien, juif, samaritain ou sabĂ©en. Il faut cependant que le scripturaire n'ait pas prononcĂ© sur l'animal le nom d'une autre divinitĂ© que Dieu. S'il prononce le nom de JĂ©sus ou d'Abraham au lieu du nom de Dieu, la viande devient inconsommable[86]. Par contre, il est interdit de manger la viande d'un animal abattu par un apostat[87]. Ibn-Abbas aussi interdit de manger la viande d'un animal abattu par un musulman non circoncis, mais les juristes classiques ont estimĂ© que si on permet de manger la viande d'un animal Ă©gorgĂ© par un chrĂ©tien, Ă  plus forte raison il faudrait permettre de manger la viande d'un animal Ă©gorgĂ© par un musulman incirconcis[88]. Il faut dans ces cas que l'abattage soit fait selon les normes islamiques, Ă  savoir que l'animal doit ĂȘtre Ă©gorgĂ© vivant et vidĂ© de son sang. Pour s'assurer que ces deux normes soient respectĂ©es, un auteur Ă©gyptien propose la crĂ©ation d'abattoirs musulmans dans les pays qui exportent la viande vers les pays musulmans, et que les bouchers y employĂ©s soient des musulmans car ils sont prĂ©fĂ©rables aux non-musulmans mĂȘme s'il est permis de manger de la viande d'animal abattu par eux[89]. La question suivante est posĂ©e sur Internet Est-ce que la viande des gens du livre chrĂ©tiens et juifs est permise Ă  manger, en sachant que, d’aprĂšs mes connaissances limitĂ©es, ils ne sont pas les vrais gens du livre comme ceux mentionnĂ©s par Allah certains de leurs dogmes, comme celui de la TrinitĂ© par exemple, sont en contradiction avec l’UnicitĂ© d’Allah ? La rĂ©ponse dit qu’il y a consensus de la Oummah sur le fait qu’il est autorisĂ© aux musulmans de consommer de la viande Ă©gorgĂ©e par les gens du livre. Elle cite Ă  ce propos le verset 55 susmentionnĂ©. Quant Ă  savoir si les chrĂ©tiens et les juifs peuvent ĂȘtre considĂ©rĂ©s comme gens du livre malgrĂ© le fait que certaines de leurs croyances sont en totale incompatibilitĂ© avec l’UnicitĂ© de Dieu, la rĂ©ponse ne nie pas une telle incompatibilitĂ© mais elle ajoute que le Coran savait ce fait 517 ; 513 ; 279 et malgrĂ© cela il les qualifie de gens du livre et a rendu licite la viande qu’ils Ă©gorgent. Ce qui montre bien que tant que ces gens n’abandonnent pas complĂštement leur religion pour devenir des athĂ©es, ils sont encore considĂ©rĂ©s comme des gens du livre. La rĂ©ponse ajoute Celui qui Ă©gorge l’animal doit avoir la foi en Dieu 
. Celui qui se dit chrĂ©tien ou juif, mais ne croit ni en Dieu, ni en un livre sacrĂ©, ni ne croit rĂ©ellement en la religion qu’il prĂ©tend suivre, est en rĂ©alitĂ© un athĂ©e, et l’animal qu’il Ă©gorge ne sera donc pas permis au musulman. Il est Ă  noter que c’est le cas de beaucoup de personnes actuellement, qui ne sont plus chrĂ©tiens ou juifs que de nom, et qui au fond ne croient plus en rien, et se moquent totalement de toute appartenance religieuse[90]. En plus des restrictions en matiĂšre de viande, il est interdit Ă  un musulman de s'asseoir Ă  table avec quelqu'un qui boit du vin. Les chiites vont jusqu'Ă  interdire de manger de la nourriture prĂ©parĂ©e par des non-musulmans lorsque cette nourriture a Ă©tĂ© touchĂ©e par un mĂ©crĂ©ant kafir et que ce dernier lui a transmis l'humiditĂ© de son corps[91]. Il va de soi que ces normes islamiques, comme les normes juives indiquĂ©es plus haut, sont contraires au principe de la non-discrimination, principe que les communautĂ©s juive et musulmane pourtant invoquent chaque fois qu'elles se sentent discriminĂ©es. Consommation d'un aliment douteux et viande importĂ©e Nous avons vu que seul Dieu peut dĂ©clarer un aliment comme illicite. Mais qu'en est-il si le musulman doute d'un aliment, ne sachant pas si ce qu'il mange est licite ou illicite? Cette question se pose notamment en ce qui concerne la viande importĂ©e de l'Occident par les pays arabes et qui ne sont pas toujours abattus selon les normes islamiques. Des savants religieux musulmans estiment que ces viandes d'animaux dont on ne sait pas comment ils ont Ă©tĂ© Ă©gorgĂ©s doivent ĂȘtre considĂ©rĂ©es comme licites en vertu du verset 55 "La nourriture de ceux Ă  qui a Ă©tĂ© donnĂ©e l'Ă©criture est licite pour vous". Cette affirmation ne peut ĂȘtre Ă©cartĂ©e qu'en cas de preuve formelle que c'est illicite. Le doute en soi ne suffit pas. On invoque ici le fait que Mahomet avait mangĂ© de la viande d'une chĂšvre qu'une juive lui avait offerte sans demander comment la chĂšvre a Ă©tĂ© Ă©gorgĂ©e. Le musulman n'est pas obligĂ© de demander comment chaque animal a Ă©tĂ© Ă©gorgĂ©. Il est par contre tenu de demander si le boucher est un musulman ou faisant partie des gens du livre du fait que Mahomet a mangĂ© de la viande de la chĂšvre en sachant qu'elle venait de la part d'une juive. On invoque aussi un rĂ©cit de Ayshah selon laquelle on apportait aux musulmans dans leur dĂ©but de la viande sans savoir si le nom de Dieu Ă©tait prononcĂ© sur cette viande ou pas. QuestionnĂ©, Mahomet a dit "Prononcez vous-mĂȘmes le nom de Dieu sur la viande et mangez"[92]. Un ouvrage chiite adressĂ© aux musulmans vivant Ă  l'Ă©tranger Ă©crit Beaucoup de nourritures des mĂ©crĂ©ants contiennent des aliments interdits comme le vin, la viande de bĂȘte morte et de porc, et des poissons sans Ă©caille. De ce fait, le musulman doit veiller Ă  ce que sa nourriture ne contienne pas de tels aliments interdits. Le musulman ne doit pas demander le contenu de la nourriture s'il l'ignore, Ă  moins que cela ne soit de la viande. Il ne peut en effet manger de la viande que si elle a Ă©tĂ© Ă©gorgĂ©e selon les rĂšgles islamiques... Il peut par contre manger tout autre aliment sans poser de question, mĂȘme si un tel aliment a Ă©tĂ© cuit avec la graisse de porc ou du vin. Mais il serait prĂ©fĂ©rable de poser des questions et y enquĂȘter pour Ă©viter les dangers de ces aliments pour l'esprit et le corps alors que l'apparence inspire qu'il s'agit d'aliment licite Si le musulman apprend que la viande n'a pas Ă©tĂ© Ă©gorgĂ©e selon les normes islamiques, il doit la considĂ©rer comme impure najis et illicite, et tout ce qui est cuit avec cette viande devient aussi illicite mĂȘme si la viande est Ă©cartĂ©e parce que la nourriture devient impure du fait que la viande Ă©tait mise dedans. En cas de doute sur la viande, on peut l'Ă©carter et manger le reste de la nourriture[93]. Le Ramadan Les musulmans observent le jeĂ»ne du mois de Ramadan. Ils doivent s'abstenir de tout aliment du lever du soleil jusqu'au coucher du soleil. A cĂŽtĂ© de ce jeĂ»ne obligatoire il y a des jeĂ»nes facultatifs, parfois un jour par semaine. La consommation dans des ustensiles en or ou argent L'opinion dominante est qu'il est interdit de manger ou de boire dans des ustensiles en or ou argent. Plusieurs rĂ©cits de Mahomet sont citĂ©s dans ce sens. Le but de cette interdiction serait d'Ă©viter la ressemblance avec les mĂ©crĂ©ants et l'orgueil. On signalera ici qu'il est interdit aux hommes de porter des bagues ou des bijoux en or, chose permise aux femmes[94]. Les raisons des interdits alimentaires On trouve chez les auteurs aussi bien classiques que modernes des explications visant Ă  justifier ces interdits. Certes, la premiĂšre raison est que Dieu les a prescrits soit Ă  travers le Coran, soit Ă  travers Mahomet. Or, comme Dieu est omniscient et Mahomet est infaillible, le croyant doit s'y soumettre. Et comme Dieu et Mahomet ne peuvent dicter des normes que pour le bien de l'homme, il ne fait pas de doute pour le musulman que ces normes sont bĂ©nĂ©fiques pour la santĂ© et les comportements sociaux. Pour ĂȘtre qualifiĂ©e de bonne sur le plan culinaire, voire mĂȘme sur le seul plan physiologique, elle doit ĂȘtre religieusement licite. Une nourriture Ă  la fois bonne et illicite est une contradiction[95] que le religieux ne saurait digĂ©rer car cela mettrait en cause l'omniscience de Dieu. Ainsi on lit dans Wasa'il al-shi'ah que la bĂȘte tuĂ©e affaiblit le corps, procure la stĂ©rilitĂ© et provoque la mort par infarctus. Quant au sang, il accumule l'eau jaune dans le ventre, donne une mauvaise odeur, cause la cruautĂ© au point que celui qui le mange peut tuer son fils et ses parents. Quant au vin, il provoque le tremblement, affaiblit la force et pousse Ă  l'adultĂšre et Ă  faire couler le sang[96]. On avance aussi des arguments liĂ©s aux croyances colportĂ©es par le Coran selon lesquelles Dieu a mĂ©tamorphosĂ© des humains en animaux pour les punir. Le fait que Dieu ait portĂ© son choix sur ces animaux indique que ces derniers sont impurs et par consĂ©quent ils ne peuvent pas ĂȘtre consommĂ©s. Consommer de tels animaux signifie en tirer profit et banaliser la sanction divine. Cette possibilitĂ© de mĂ©tamorphoser les humains est invoquĂ©e par le verset 3667. Trois versets indiquent que Dieu en a fait usage en changeant des ĂȘtres humains en singes et en porcs 265 Certes vous connaissez ceux qui, parmi vous, ont transgressĂ© le sabbat; nous leur avons dit "Soyez des singes abjects!" 560 Dis "Vous donnerai-je avis de ceux dont la rĂ©compense sera pire que cela, auprĂšs d'Allah? Ceux qu'Allah a maudits, contre qui Il s'est courroucĂ©, dont Il a fait des singes et des porcs, qui ont adorĂ© les Taghout, ceux-lĂ  ont la pire place et sont les plus Ă©garĂ©s hors du Chemin Uni." 7166 Quand en effet ils eurent dĂ©sobĂ©i Ă  ce qui leur avait Ă©tĂ© interdit, Nous leur dĂźmes "Soyez des singes abjects!" Les rĂ©cits de Mahomet nous offrent d'autres exemples de mĂ©tamorphose. Ceci est dĂ©veloppĂ© notamment dans les Ă©crits chiites, mais aussi sunnites[97]. Parmi les animaux dans lesquels des humains ont Ă©tĂ© mĂ©tamorphosĂ©s selon les chiites nous citons le porc et le singe un groupe d'israĂ©lites qui ne respectait pas le sabbat; selon un autre rĂ©cit des chrĂ©tiens qui n'ont pas cru Ă  la table garnie descendue du ciel pour JĂ©sus ont Ă©tĂ© mĂ©tamorphosĂ©s en porc, l'Ă©lĂ©phant un roi ou tyran qui a commis l'adultĂšre, le lapin une femme qui trahissait son mari et ne lavait pas ses menstrues, le loup un bĂ©douin qui ne veillait pas sur la pudeur de ses femmes, la chauve-souris un voleur qui volait les dattes des gens, la guĂȘpe un boucher qui volait la viande en trichant dans la mesure, le rat et le scorpion un calomniateur, l'araignĂ©e une femme qui avait ensorcelĂ© son mari, le pou un homme qui se moquait des prophĂštes et les insultait. Selon un rĂ©cit attribuĂ© Ă  Mahomet, Dieu aurait mĂ©tamorphosĂ© sept cents groupes humains qui avaient dĂ©sobĂ©i aux prophĂštes; quatre cents de ces groupes ont pris la forme d'animaux terrestres, et trois cents la forme d'animaux aquatiques. Il aurait alors rĂ©citĂ© le verset 3419 qui dit "Nous les fĂźmes passer en lĂ©gendes et les dĂ©chirĂąmes en mille lambeaux. En vĂ©ritĂ©, en cela sont certes des signes pour tout homme trĂšs constant et trĂšs reconnaissant"[98]. Signalons ici que l'argument de la mĂ©tamorphose n'est pas mentionnĂ© dans les ouvrages modernes sur la nourriture, probablement en raison de son caractĂšre irrationnel choquant. Nous avons vu que Mahomet a ordonnĂ© de tuer certains animaux, comme le serpent, le corbeau, le rat, le chien qui agresse et le lĂ©zard[99]. L'ordre de les tuer est dĂ» probablement au fait qu'ils sont nocifs. Ces animaux ne peuvent pas ĂȘtre mangĂ©s. Il a aussi interdit de tuer certains animaux que Mahomet a interdit de tuer, animaux qui, par consĂ©quent, ne peuvent pas ĂȘtre mangĂ©s. Parmi ces animaux les sunnites citent la fourmi, l'abeille, la huppe, la pie griĂšche et la grenouille[100]. La raison de l'interdiction est d'ordre religieux. Ainsi l'interdiction de tuer la fourmi, l'abeille et la huppe proviendrait du fait que le Coran en parle en bien. Un rĂ©cit chiite dit que sur l'aile de chaque huppe il est Ă©crit en langue syriaque "La famille de Mahomet est la meilleure de la crĂ©ation"[101]. La pie griĂšche, selon la tradition, serait la premiĂšre Ă  avoir observĂ© le jeĂ»ne par dĂ©votion envers Dieu. La voix de la grenouille est considĂ©rĂ©e par Mahomet comme une priĂšre, ou parce qu'elle contiendrait du venin[102]. La chauve-souris aurait essayĂ© d'Ă©tendre le feu du Temple de Salomon lors de sa destruction[103]. La perdrix selon les sources chiites rend louange Ă  Dieu et termine sa priĂšre en disant "Dieu a maudit ceux qui dĂ©testent la famille de Mahomet"[104]. Les interdits alimentaires entre loi et pratique Comme nous venons de voir, les aliments interdits ne sont pas traitĂ©s avec la mĂȘme rigueur. Ainsi, il est permis d'acheter et de vendre un Ăąne puisqu'il s'agit d'un animal utile pour le transport des humains et des biens, mais il est interdit de manger sa viande. Si malgrĂ© tout le musulman mange sa viande, les lĂ©gistes ne prĂ©voient pas de sanction contre ce musulman. En ce qui concerne le porc, il est interdit aussi bien de manger sa viande que de le possĂ©der et, par consĂ©quent, de faire une transaction le concernant vente, achat, donation, etc.. Il en est de mĂȘme du vin. Si un musulman tue ou vole un porc ou une bouteille de vin d'un autre musulman, il n'est pas tenu d'indemniser son propriĂ©taire. Mais il est permis aux non-musulmans de possĂ©der et de consommer du porc ou du vin, et si un musulman tue le porc d'un chrĂ©tien ou verse son vin, il doit l'indemniser. Si un musulman consomme la viande de porc, de chien ou d'Ăąne, il viole un interdit religieux, mais les lĂ©gistes ne prĂ©voient aucune sanction pĂ©nale contre lui[105]. Par contre celui qui consomme du vin est punissable selon les lĂ©gistes, mais pas tous les pays musulmans prĂ©voient une sanction pĂ©nale contre la violation d'un tel interdit. La fabrication et la vente du vin sont confiĂ©es dans ces pays surtout Ă  des chrĂ©tiens, mais les musulmans sont ceux qui en consomment le plus. Il arrive cependant que des groupes musulmans interviennent pour chĂątier ceux qui consomment du vin et pour attaquer les magasins et les hĂŽtels qui le vendent. Bien que l'interdiction de consommer de la viande de porc ne soit pas sanctionnĂ©e sur le plan pĂ©nal, contrairement au vin, on peut dire que les musulmans sont plus respectueux de l'interdiction de consommer du porc que de l'interdiction de consommer du vin. Le porc est en fait considĂ©rĂ© comme un animal impur et rĂ©pugnant. On m'a cependant signalĂ© que des musulmans dans certains quartiers du Caire Ă©lĂšvent le porc et le vendent aux chrĂ©tiens. La non-consommation de la viande du porc par les musulmans fait que cette viande est nettement moins chĂšre que la viande des autres animaux. Si les lĂ©gistes musulmans classiques sont unanimes sur certains interdits alimentaires, tels que le porc ou le vin, ces lĂ©gistes divergent en ce qui concerne d’autres aliments. Cette divergence est due au manque de clartĂ© du texte coranique et Ă  la contradiction des rĂ©cits attribuĂ©s Ă  Mahomet, Ă  moins que ces rĂ©cits n'aient Ă©tĂ© inventĂ©s pour accommoder des coutumes locales. Ainsi, certains lĂ©gistes interdisent la consommation de la viande de tortue ou de cheval. Mais les malikites vont jusqu'Ă  permettre la consommation de toute viande qui n'est pas expressĂ©ment interdite. Et mĂȘme en ce qui concerne la consommation du vin, certains lĂ©gistes ont essayĂ©, en vain, de rĂ©duire la portĂ©e de l'interdiction. A cĂŽtĂ© de ces attitudes conciliantes, on signale une tentative de la part des Qarmates pour qui il n'existe aucun interdit alimentaire. Ce groupe, aujourd'hui disparu, permettait aux bouchers d’exposer de la viande de toutes sortes d’animaux, dont des porcs et des chiens, Ă  condition d’y laisser la tĂȘte pour que les gens puissent en consommer en connaissance de cause, en toute libertĂ©, chacun selon sa propre conscience[106]. En ce qui concerne le respect du jeĂ»ne de Ramadan, un des cinq piliers de la croyance islamique, il est assurĂ© sur le plan de la famille, de la sociĂ©tĂ© et de l'État. Le pĂšre de famille peut imposer Ă  sa femme et Ă  ses enfants Ă  partir d'un certain Ăąge de jeĂ»ner. D'autre part, l'État interdit toute violation publique du jeĂ»ne. Certes les non-musulmans ne sont pas tenus de jeĂ»ner, mais ils ne peuvent consommer en public. Des lois punissent une telle consommation. Mais certains États se montrent moins exigeants, voire hostiles Ă  l'observation du Ramadan pour des raisons de santĂ© et d'Ă©conomie. En effet si le jeĂ»ne peut parfois s'avĂ©rer bĂ©nĂ©fique pour la santĂ©, le jeĂ»ne pendant un mois sans manger et sans boire affecte la santĂ© et occasionne une fatigue et une faiblesse physique qui peut causer des accidents. D'autre part, lors de la rupture du jeĂ»ne le soir on relĂšve des excĂšs de nourriture nĂ©fastes pour la santĂ©. On relĂšve Ă  cet Ă©gard que les hĂŽpitaux connaissent pendant la pĂ©riode de Ramadan un afflux de malades Ă  cause du jeĂ»ne et de la rupture du jeĂ»ne. Sur le plan Ă©conomique, le jeĂ»ne affecte les activitĂ©s privĂ©es et publiques, et les horaires du travail et de l'Ă©cole sont gĂ©nĂ©ralement rĂ©duits. D'autre part, les musulmans dĂ©pensent pendant cette pĂ©riode plus que dans d'autres mois de l'annĂ©e, notamment en nourriture alors que le mois de Ramadan est censĂ© ĂȘtre un mois d'abstinence. Pour ces raisons le PrĂ©sident Bourguiba de la Tunisie incitait son peuple Ă  ne pas observer le Ramadan et ne manquait pas Ă  se montrer Ă  la tĂ©lĂ©vision en train de manger et de boire. Mais si l'État parfois peut se montrer en faveur de l'abolition du jeĂ»ne, la sociĂ©tĂ© peut se montrer sĂ©vĂšre envers ceux qui enfreignent le jeĂ»ne de Ramadan. Il arrive que des groupes religieux effectuent des tournĂ©es dans les restaurants et les bars pour chĂątier ceux qui consomment en public pendant le mois de Ramadan.

Medical education and training Enablers and barriers to effective clinical supervision in the workplace a rapid evidence review Rothwell1, Kehoe2, Sophia Farhene Farook3, Illing41School of Medical Education, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK2Health Professions Education Unit, Hull York Medical School, York, UK3Emergency Medicine, Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Trust, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK4Health Professions Education Centre, Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, Dublin, IrelandCorrespondence to Dr Charlotte Rothwell; AbstractObjectives We aimed to review the international literature to understand the enablers of and barriers to effective clinical supervision in the workplace and identify the benefits of effective clinical A rapid evidence sources Five databases CINAHL, OVID Embase, OVID Medline, OVID PsycInfo and ProQuest were searched to ensure inclusion and breadth of healthcare criteria Studies identifying enablers and barriers to effective clinical supervision across healthcare professionals in a Western context between 1 January 2009 and 12 March extraction and synthesis An extraction framework with a detailed inclusion/exclusion criteria to ensure rigour was used to extract data. Data were analysed using a thematic qualitative synthesis. These themes were used to answer the research The search identified 15 922 papers, reduced to 809 papers following the removal of duplicates and papers outside the inclusion criteria, with 135 papers being included in the full review. Enablers identified included regular supervision, occurs within protected time, in a private space and delivered flexibly. Additional enablers included supervisees being offered a choice of supervisor; supervision based on mutual trust and a positive relationship; a cultural understanding between supervisor and supervisee; a shared understanding of the purpose of supervision, based on individual needs, focused on enhancing knowledge and skills; training and feedback being provided for supervisors; and use of a mixed supervisor model, delivered by several supervisors, or by those trained to manage the overlapping and potentially conflicting needs of the individual and the service. Barriers included a lack of time, space and trust. A lack of shared understanding to the purpose of the supervision, and a lack of ongoing support and engagement from leadership and organisations were also found to be barriers to effective clinical This review identified several enablers of and barriers to effective clinical supervision and the subsequent benefits of effective clinical supervision in a healthcare & training see medical education & traininghealth services administration & managementorganisational developmentorganisation of health servicesquality in healthcareData availability statementData sharing not applicable as no datasets generated and/or analysed for this is an open access article distributed in accordance with the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial CC BY-NC license, which permits others to distribute, remix, adapt, build upon this work non-commercially, and license their derivative works on different terms, provided the original work is properly cited, appropriate credit is given, any changes made indicated, and the use is non-commercial.

Most organisations provide some provision, but many lack an understanding about why it is important, who should be involved, what the possible benefits are and how it could be is at the core of practice for all health and social care professionals, where there should be a sense of shared responsibility for the effectiveness and safety of It is important to understand this complex process to ensure best practice for all participants involved practitioner, service delivery manager, clinical supervisor, peers, clients and other service users, the profession itself.Supervision has been described as an event that involves an ongoing professional relationship, between two and more staff members with different levels of knowledge or expertise, to support professional development and to enhance knowledge and Definitions of supervision emphasise the promotion of professional development in addition to ensuring patient safety. For example, Nancarrow et al2 focus on the progression of clinical practice through professional guidance and support and refer to Proctor’s3 three functions of supervision—managerial/administrative, educational and supportive. All three functions should be overlapping and has been suggested that there are many forms of supervision internal managerial, internal reflective, external professional and external 4 At one end of this continuum, managerial supervision takes place inside the organisation and is mostly focused on task and process. At the other end, personal supervision is worker focused and centres mainly on the narrative brought into the supervision space by the This last type of supervision personal has been highly valued by workers to air their feelings; providing a safe place to connect and self-reflect. Personal supervision allowed a more intensive focus on clinical issues and personal professional development rather than organisational Two types of supervision tend to coexist when the line manager is also the clinical supervisor—a focus on practitioner learning and development, and another focused on service delivery, risk management and underperformance. Kilminster and Jolly5 argued for clarity on dealing with underperformance in addition to identifying what helps and hinders effective clinical supervision. Managing this split highlights the need for supervisor this review, we used the following definition of supervision as it encompassed both personal development and service development in the context of a relationship extending over timeThis relationship is evaluative, extends over time and has the simultaneous purposes of enhancing the professional functioning of the more junior person and monitoring the quality of the professional services. Bernard and Goodyear, p86While it is evident that supervision is important, we must now understand exactly what aspects of supervision we should be focusing on, and it is hoped that best practice can be sought from looking across such a range of different healthcare professionals. Any critical differences that impacted on supervision across health professions were also the focus of supervisionThe aim of this rapid review was 1 to syntheses the evidence of international literature on the enablers of, and barriers to effective clinical supervision in the workplace; 2 to identify the benefits of effective clinical supervision in the Rapid Evidence Assessment REA was used in this study. A REA is similar to a systematic review in that they both use rigorous methods of appraising and synthesising evidence from published However, restrictions on the data retrieved are placed on the search at the data collection strategyThe research protocol was developed with advice from a data analyst at Newcastle University. As a result, we refined our initial search strategy and targeted the most appropriate databases. The following databases were used to ensure a breadth of health and social care professions were included CINAHL, Allied and Health Professionals literature, OVID Embase, OVID Medline Medical literature, OVID PsycInfo, Psychological literature and ProQuest Social Science literature. See the Search strategy section for a breakdown of search terms systematic search see online supplemental material 1 for search strategy of each database was carried out in line with our search strategy. As is typical of rapid reviews, limits were placed on the search to ensure the research could be done in a timely manner. For example, only including papers from the last 10 years ensured we were able to capture the most relevant documents for current supervision practice in a shorter space of time. Search terms were developed to include a comprehensive list of healthcare professionals, supervision types and forms of effectiveness. Restrictions were placed on the databases in line with our search materialProcedure for screening of data, data extraction and ensuring quality assuranceAll citations were downloaded to EndNote reference management database and duplication was removed n=2683. Authors independently reviewed the same 500 titles and abstracts to make sure that the same papers were being included/excluded. Any discrepancies were discussed and the inclusion/exclusion criteria were refined as needed see box 1. All 13 239 titles and abstracts were screened by two researchers CR and AK.Box 1Revised inclusion/exclusion criteriaInclusion criteria for papersPapers that include clinical supervision and/or peer support in the that include a regulated healthcare published within the last 10 years 1 January 2009–12 March 2019.Papers that include primary research and systematic which are quantitative, qualitative or mixed written in reporting on a Western culture criteria for papersFocus not on formal and structured clinical/peer supervision by this we mean that the supervision was not a one off’ event but must have some ongoing relationship, as detailed in the very definition of supervision.Not in healthcare evidence based eg, opinion pieces, letters or weak evidence.Paper not written in English/outside review of children/animals/ culture pilot data extraction exercise was conducted to ensure quality assurance. This exercise involved all four reviewers independently reading full papers and was repeated with a further 10 papers to check consistency of inclusion/exclusion and data extraction. The data extraction framework was revised following this initial review of papers. The clear inclusion/exclusion criteria and detailed data extraction form were used to ensure rigour. The data extraction form has been added as online supplemental material 2. Regular meetings were held between all four reviewers to ensure quality was maintained and to discuss uncertainties or queries that arose from the papers, and it was during this phase that the definition of clinical supervision was identified .Supplemental materialSynthesis of papersOnce the data were entered onto the data extraction database see online supplemental material 2 for the data extraction form, the data were analysed using a qualitative thematic synthesis,8 which is a useful approach when aiming to pull out common elements across the heterogeneous literature. These themes were used to answer the research and public involvementPatients or the public were not involved in the design, or conduct, or reporting, or dissemination plans of our full review of papers was conducted on 809 publications from nearly 16 000 initially identified see figure 1. The final number of included papers was 135, with 674 being demographicsSettingA range of countries were represented within the included papers, with the majority being from Australia 38, the UK 31, the USA 24, New Zealand 11 and Canada 7. The findings were further diversified by the broad set of health and social care professions included in the review. The majority of papers included doctors, nurses, psychologists and social workers. Examples of other allied health professionals included were music therapists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, podiatrists and designsPapers included in the review were a mix of qualitative papers 53 using interview or focus group data and quantitative papers 50 using surveys and questionnaires. Several papers used a mixed-methods approach 15 and literature reviews 15, case study 1, action research 1, unidentified 1.Type of supervisionOf the included papers, a large majority focused on clinical supervision 110, with a minority focusing on peer supervision 22 or both 3. These included both individual and group supervision sessions. Within the literature, there were several types of clinical supervision and peer supervision discussed. However, there was not always a clear distinction between different types of supervision, and terms were often used interchangeably such as peer supervision and peer mentoring. The working definition we used was clinical supervision, which was conducted either in a one-to-one or small group situation by a senior staff member or by a more experienced staff member at the same level. Clinical supervision included action planning; reflection on clinical situations; role development and training; indirect and direct supervision; and included supervision from both internal and external research questions were answered using evidence from this literature are the enablers to effective clinical supervision?An open, supportive and safe environmentThere was considerable evidence to highlight that having an open and safe environment where supervisees feel comfortable and trust their supervisor is an integral part of 9–34 Having the time to discuss personal issues based on the needs of the individual was identified as an important focus for 32 35–37 There was also evidence of the value of time spent reflecting on practice, including ethical issues14 15 18 28 38 39 and of receiving 30 32 39–42Establishing a supervisory relationship based on trustBeing able to develop a positive relationship with a supervisor that was based on trust was seen as key by a wide range of 4 10 11 28 39 42–46 Supervisors who were deemed experts in their own profession were also more likely to be viewed as credible and trustworthy, and supervisees felt they were better placed to support 12 32 46–48 Trust was also underpinned by having the opportunity to be able to explore each other’s belief and value systems in a neutral space, away from organisational hierarchies and the workplace and where emotions could be managed in an open and reflective way10 49 and when the supervisee respected the supervisor personally and professionally and both parties could self-disclose 50Regular supervision with timely feedbackMany studies reported on the importance of receiving regular and constructive feedback during supervision2 14 15 32 40 44 51–54 and having the time to reflect on 15 18 28 42 51 55 Supervision was valued for the sharing of tacit knowledge, for providing real-time feedback41 and when it provided confirmation that staff had done the right majority of the literature reviewed did not specify supervision frequency. There was scant evidence on how often clinical supervision should take However, Dilworth et al57 reported that supervision should take place on a monthly basis to ensure sufficient support. Furthermore, McMahon and Errity27 reported that supervision that was less than fortnightly was insufficient and healthcare workers who spent at least 60 min in supervision perceived their supervision to be more relationships develop over time and are complex,59 therefore supervision should not be a one-off activity, instead, it needs to be sustained over time and from early on in a However, the importance of providing unplanned discussion time to support emerging needs and ensure staff well-being was also for supervisorsSupervisors need to have training in cultural awareness to enable them to be culturally competent. This was seen as an asset leading to improvements in communication, reflection and 10 62 Supervisors also need to be trained on listening skills30 32 63 and helping supervisees to problem Findings showed that it was important that the supervisor was able to not only provide feedback, but also receive it 15 30 32 41 42What are the benefits of effective clinical supervision?Job satisfaction and staff retentionSeveral studies reported that effective supervision was found to have a positive impact on staff retention,61 65–67 job satisfaction,13 68 69 staff well-being63 70–72 and perceptions of being Wilson et al32 found that feedback from supervisors facilitated learning and encouraged staff development. Continual Professional Development CPD and training for supervisors themselves were also found to increase Regular supervision was found to increase staff McMahon and Errity27 reported that greater supervision frequency, with regular progress reviews, was significantly related to positive stress and anxietySeveral studies found that supervision reduced stress and 22 44 47 70–72 75–78 Evidence suggested that the reduction in stress and anxiety came about as supervision provided a medium for sharing skills, knowledge and resources, in a supportive 44 47 A reduction in stress for supervisors was also found, following the provision of training and CPD support for Studies reported that supervision helped participants to manage their feelings,44 76 also improving understanding of the importance of well-being and learning to help reflect on working environmentResearch highlighted that effective supervision and a supportive working environment can improve the uptake of workplace policies as supervisees understand the importance and reason for the Better teamwork, relationships and more support in the workplace can also help with professional A study by Davis and Burke16 reported that supervision with nurse managers improved communication among staff and facilitated reflection, sharing ideas and quality of care deliverySeveral studies made links with the provision of effective supervision and an increase in quality of 23 71 72 76 80–82 A study carried out by da Silva Pinheiro and de Carvalho76 reported group supervision with nurses had helped them to manage their feelings, which they linked to an increase in quality of care for their patients. Claridge et al81 looked at whether direct supervision with resident doctors increased patient outcomes. Results showed that with direct supervision, there was a greater uptake of compliance with managerial protocols, and as a result patient outcomes were are the barriers to effective clinical supervision?Lack of time and heavy workloadsOne of the main barriers identified for effective supervision was a lack of time and heavy 17 21 25 35 41 48 57 73 83–98 Many studies reported that supervisors were unable to find time for supervision due to busy work environments, which ultimately restricted supervisor flexibility and quality when they did find the 82 99 Other studies reported a lack of opportunity and time for reflection within supervision, which left staff feeling that they had to figure things out’ for themselves without adequate 84Many noted that supervision was not a priority, for both supervisor and 27 60 71 72 94 100 As a result, supervision was sometimes perceived to be a bonus,11 feeling that they were expected to not dwell’ on stressful workplace issues. There was often an expectation that supervisors had the time to develop relationships and would take the time to complete the necessary paperwork prior to and following supervision, which could be lack of adequate resources could lead to an overstretched workforce not being able to support each other effectively, and a decline in clinical supervision due to pressures on staff Kenny and Allenby60 discussed a lack of monetary incentives for supervision, affecting how supervision was perceived and whether it was provided or attended. Supervisees only wanted to attend supervision when it was within work time and when there was protected time for of staffing, shift workingThe type of clinical environment could facilitate or hinder clinical Key factors were organisation location, shift work patterns and work-environmental factors quantitative demands, tempo, cognitive demands, influence at work and social support. Jelinek et al51 discussed that there was a reduction in supervision levels during unsociable shift patterns. Supervision was dependent on service demands and was often not seen as a priority if there was insufficient staff numbers in busy environments. Differences seemed to not only reflect culture regardless of policy asserting its importance but also ease of access to supervision.

Issues arose when either the supervisor or supervisees were unaware of the supervisee’s lack of knowledge and 33 47A lack of support from employers was noted by supervisors when raising concerns about staff,51 not always being told where to signpost supervisees to if there were any concerns or needs outside of their remit eg, mental health support. Supervisors themselves may also need to seek Supervisors also feared that if they gave supervisees negative feedback, that in turn they would receive negative teaching evaluations, and this would impact on their own future promotion and There was also evidence that clinical supervision was delegated to the most junior consultants, with the least experience to deal with complex underperforming Kilbertus et al111 highlighted that a lack of continuity of feedback meant that it was easy for struggling residents to fall through the with supervision from another discipline or from an external organisationExternal supervisors who work in a different organisation to their supervisee and interprofessional supervision supervisors from a different profession may require additional training and 4 60 Interprofessional supervision can sometimes lead to misunderstanding due to differences in roles, responsibilities and levels of training. There may also be an absence of shared theory, language, differences in professional decision-making processes and codes of In addition, an oversight of ethical practice could be weaker with an interprofessional It may also disadvantage supervisors with regard to the professional role, not being able to raise all issues, and causes disempowerment due to differences in professional status1 and places a burden of responsibility on the supervisor to have a good working knowledge of the context of practice of other states that an external supervisor will hold less information about the practitioner compared with an internal supervisor, who will likely identify managerial concerns more effectively. Having an external supervisor, however, increased the likelihood that supervision took 114 115 Yet it was the supervisee who mainly set the agenda with regard to issues to be discussed, and therefore underperformance was more likely to remain concealed.

This review has highlighted evidence which indicates what needs to be in place to ensure clinical supervision is effective.

These included a lack of time and heavy workload,2 16 17 21 35 41 48 54 57 64 73 83–85 87–96 98 a lack of resources,18 37 60 unsupportive management and colleagues,2 27 31 73 93 102 128 a lack of supervisor training,11 17 32 38 64 76 91 92 105–107 124 and a lack of trusting relationships and ongoing 17 45 61 75 84 117 118 Supervisees were also sometimes unaware of the purpose of the supervision practice,2 60 64 100 119 impacting on A recent study has highlighted the need for supervision to include patient care, concluding that the usual model of meeting for a supervisory discussion away from patient care was not found to be Although this is an interesting and important finding, our findings would suggest that the overall supervisory experience is not as simplistic as this. There is a need to take into account all of the factors and levels presented in this paper, there being no single answer leading to effective were no critical differences identified across the range of healthcare professionals in terms of ensuring effective supervision is in place, with similar themes being apparent across all. Naturally, professions such as psychologists and social workers will face different challenges and have different needs from their supervisory relationship; however, this is part of the supervisory process and identification of those needs is what will make it an effective experience for the is clear from the evidence that support from management is needed to enable effective implementation, including cost and training for staff. However, this review has highlighted that supervision is subject to different interpretations by managers, who tend to focus more on service delivery rather than on staff development, and agreeing on the shared purpose of supervision is important to reduce 10 Beddoe1 argued that managerial supervision creates a shift from being practitioner focused to a monitoring agenda. Problems seem to arise when the focus was perceived to be monitoring performance, rather than on the provision of 9 10 39 42 115 Pack72 highlights that line managers need to focus on protecting the employing organisation and their patients/clients from risk,96 whereas external supervisors can focus more on the personal development. This split may offer a solution that avoids the inevitable tension experienced by a manager who is also the clinical supervisor. The issue of managing underperformance alongside personal development further highlights this tension and indicates again that having two different supervisors might offer a solution; like experienced by junior doctors in the UK, who have an educational supervisor who overseas educational development and a clinical supervisor who overseas clinical practice. A split role, when feasible, might be the preferred solution and when this is not an option then supervisors need training to support them to manage these challenges. The model of practice which is best is a source of continued debate. However, what is clear is that there is no one size fits all’ for clinical supervision and all stakeholders need to consider how to make their supervision as effective as it can be and involve discussion to agree on the shared purpose of clinical paper was based on evidence identified in the international literature using a rapid review, which involves a systematic search and rigorous analysis. Although in many places there was a vast amount of information, which provides strength to the findings, a rapid review necessarily pays less attention to study design and sample sizes. An additional limitation of this rapid review was that the study focused on publications in English, studies set in Western only settings and publications within the past 10 years only. Much of the data were heterogeneous in nature, and this also hindered our ability to relate the findings to specific professions and settings. However, the findings drawn from the overall themes were evident across much of the review has identified the following enablers of and barriers to effective clinical supervision with regard to the organisation, the supervisor and included having a set place and a regular time slot for supervision to ensure it takes place. It is more likely to occur when a private space is made available and when protected time is available. Also, there needs to be some flexibility to enable staff working irregular hours such as night shift to access clinical supervision. Barriers to supervision happening were apparent when these issues of place and time were not in key enabler identified was when the supervisory relationship was based on a positive relationship and on mutual trust. Ideally, supervisees should be offered a choice of supervisor and there should be some cultural understanding between them. When this is not the case, when the relationship lacks trust, this becomes a barrier, as does having to accept a supervisor not well matched to the supervisee and when cultural understanding is clinical supervision to be effective, there needs to be a shared understanding of its purpose. Ideally, this is based on the individual needs of the supervisee and the focus is on enhancing knowledge and skills to support professional development and improve the service. Barriers occur when there is no agreed purpose and no agreement or conflicting views on the focus of clinical review identified that a range of types of supervision can be effective one-to-one, group, internal, external and distance supervision can all offer a range of benefits. Going forward, having different types of supervision, with different people who offer different perspectives, should be considered and may overcome some of the barriers in place when only one, poorly matched, supervisor is available. Clearly, having different supervisors also overcomes the problem of having a line manager who is both the clinical supervisor and service manager and who may need to manage the needs of the service with the potentially conflicting needs to the individual. Lastly, providing training to supervisors is helpful to ensure they are supported and developed in this role and indeed also benefit from feedback themselves, without such training barriers to effective supervision may availability statementData sharing not applicable as no datasets generated and/or analysed for this statementsPatient consent for publicationNot Supplementary materials Supplementary Data This web only file has been produced by the BMJ Publishing Group from an electronic file supplied by the authors and has not been edited for content.

Results We achieved 13% clinical pregnancies and 11% live births. COS and infertility type do not have significant effect on IUI clinical outcomes with unstable intervention of various couples' parameters, including the female age, the IUI attempt rank, and the sperm quality. Conclusion Further, the COS used seemed a weak predictor for IUI success; therefore, the indications need more discussion, especially in unexplained infertility cases involving various factors. Indeed, the fourth IUI attempt, the female age over 40 years, and the total motile sperm count 1 × 106. The exclusion criteria were TMS ≀ 1 × 106; sperm donation; seropositivity for human immunodeficiency virus HIV for any couple member; inseminations performed in a natural cycle or with clomiphene citrate CC. IUI ProtocolAll couples had undergone a standard infertility evaluation, which included medical history, physical examination, and assessment of tubal patency by either hysterosalpingography or laparoscopy and hormonal analysis on cycle day 3. A transvaginal ultrasound scan was performed on the second day of the cycle. On the same day, ovarian stimulation was carried out with recombinant FSH follitropin α; rFSH; Gonal-F, Merck Serono, France, or follitropin ÎČ; Puregon, MSD, France, urinary FSH urofollitropin, Fostimon, France, or hMG menotropin, Menopur, France at a starting dose of 75 IU/day from the second day of the response and endometrial thickness were monitored by transvaginal ultrasonography starting on day 6 of stimulation and then on alternate days; the gonadotropin dose was adjusted according to the ovarian response and the patient's characteristics. When at least one mature follicle reached a diameter >17 mm and E2 level > 150 pmol/mL, the recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin hCG, Ovitrelle, Merck Serono, France was administered, and endometrial thickness was single IUI was performed 36 h after hCG injection using a soft catheter classic Frydman catheter; Laboratoire CCD, Paris, France or a hard catheter SET TDT, International Laboratory CDD. The semen samples used for insemination were processed within 1 hour of ejaculation by density gradient centrifugation, followed by washing with a culture medium after determining the TMS and semen analysis according to the WHO criteria [26]. Outcome VariableThe main clinical outcome measures were clinical pregnancy and live-birth rates per cycle. Clinical pregnancy was defined as the evidence of pregnancy by ultrasound examination of the gestational sac at weeks 5– Statistical AnalysisThe stimulation protocols were divided into 4 categories according to the gonadotropin used for COS rFSH/Gonal-F, rFSH/Puregon, uFSH/Fostimon, and hMG/ type was considered in seven categories cervical factor, dysovulation, endometriosis, tubal factor, male factor, and unexplained infertility. After statistical analysis of the results, it was necessary to determine the parameter cut-offs to give infertile couples more chances through IUI before carrying out other ART techniquesGroups were compared for all main couples' characteristics and cycle outcomes. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation SD or percentage of the total. Data were analysed with Student's t-test for means comparisons or with the chi-squared test for comparison of percentages using Statistical Package, version SAS; Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA; p 15 Sperm motility ≄40 % versus ≀39 TMS ≄5 × 106 versus <5 s power calculation showed a power of 80% to demonstrate a difference across the COS groups in delivery rates of 10% between groups 1 and 4 and 2 and 4, of 11% between groups 3 and 4, of 8% between groups 2 and 3, of 8% between groups 2 and 4, of 7% between groups 1 and 2, 6% between recombinant FSH and urinary products, and of 9% between FSH and HMG4. DiscussionAs a first step in ART, IUI keeps a central place in the management of infertile couples for its simplicity, but it still offers weak effectiveness. Indeed, IUI success is still a subject of controversy, with a clinical pregnancy rate between 8% and 25% [16, 18, 27–31]. Furthermore, based on a recent prospective study in seven French ART centres, the overall live-birth rate was 11% per cycle, varying from 8% to 18% between centres [9]. Similarly, we attained 13% for clinical pregnancy and 11% for live-birth for the 1251 couples who underwent homologous IUI with gonadotropins for COS Table 1.Indeed, gonadotropin use had proved its superiority to improve clinical outcomes of IUI compared to other COS protocols, such as CC and letrozole [32–38]. Erdem et al. [36] showed that, for IUI success, rFSH Gonal-F was more effective than using CC to reach 28% for clinical pregnancy and 24% of live-birth. Nevertheless, it is still not clear which of the currently available medications is preferable for COS [15, 23, 39–43]. However, several studies compared different types of gonadotropin efficiency rFSH, uFSH, or hMG [15, 25, 44–47]. Indeed, in the first part of this work, we compared four gonadotropins for COS in IUI rFSH/Gonal-F; rFSH/Puregon; uFSH/Fostimon and hMG/Menopur while rFSH was the most used in 72% of couples Table 1.This preference was noticed in other studies [9, 15, 25, 36] without finding any significant improvement on clinical outcomes. Indeed, as demonstrated in our study, there was no significant difference between different protocols used for COS rFSH/Gonal-F; rFSH/Puregon; uFSH/Fostimon; and hMG/Menopur; Table 2, although, in contrast, some authors pointed to the greater potency of rFSH [22, 48]. However, other studies have reported higher pregnancy rates for hMG [33, 49–53]. Even if our study had 80% power to demonstrate differences in PR of 6% to 11% between 2 groups, according to their size, it is clear that the differences we observed were very low, in favour of a low impact of the 4 used COS regimen on the results. This was less clear for infertility origin because of the very low numbers of some groups. However, the results of the multivariate logistic model confirmed the results observed at the first step analysis, reinforcing their valueGenerally, rFSH is commonly used to minimize the possibility of developing ovarian cysts associated with LH contamination and to improve the probability of a more consistent, effective, and efficient ovarian response [22, 48].Although there was no significant difference between the efficiency of gonadotropins for COS, other COS protocol factors could be involved to improve the clinical outcomes, especially regarding the starting dose and the total doses of treatment as proved by several studies [15, 23–25, 54].To explain the absence of a significant difference between the four COS groups, we analysed other factors relative to COS protocol female age, IUI attempt rank, and sperm quality. As expected, our studied population showed its heterogeneity involving multiple factors, which was the reason not to have a real consensus about the efficiency of COS, and this made it harder to really evaluate its impact. The sperm motility significantly affected the live-birth in rFSH groups Table 3. Furthermore, the IUI attempt rank had a significant negative correlation with clinical outcomes with unequal values between groups Table 3. Indeed, it is not legitimate to consider the COS as a strong predictive factor of clinical outcomes in IUI, while other factors could not all be controlledInfertility type has been discussed throughout several studies as a nonnegligible indicator of IUI clinical outcomes [15, 30, 38, 50, 55–59], while the latest National Institute for Health and Care Excellence NICE guideline on fertility [59] recommends that IUI should not be routinely offered to people with unexplained infertility, mild endometriosis, or mild male factor infertility who are having regular unprotected sexual this reason, in the second part of this study, we were more focused on evaluating the infertility type effect on IUI success. As a result, there was no significant difference between clinical outcomes of the different groups based on the infertility type Table 4. Although unexplained infertility was most couples' indication for IUI 36% Table 1, as noticed in the recent report of Monraisin et al. [9] with a value of 39%, the lack of significant difference in clinical outcomes with other IUI indications was not unexpected, while its aetiology kept the multifactorial profile [57] shared with other infertilities. Our results are confirmed by the recent study of [38]. However, some teams report the best pregnancy rates in cervical indications [30, 55] and in anovulation infertilities [15, 50, 56]. Indeed, the pregnancy rate per cycle for patients with anovulation due to PCOS was 13%, which was probably corrected by Controlled Ovarian Hyperstimulation COH [15]. On the other hand, endometriosis was considered a bad prognostic factor for IUI success with lower pregnancy between 6% and 9% than other IUI indications [20, 50, 60]. Indeed, endometriosis, which is among the most difficult disorders to treat [21], decreased the IUI success rate for mild compared to severe cases 6% of success rate. This fact can argue the limitation of IUI to a maximum of two to three cycles [15, 19, 50, 60, 61]. This fact could explain our weak population size in the endometriosis group with just 35 couples, while the majority of couples were directed to undergo predictors of success have been widely studied on the COS effect and the infertility type effect. The most discussed effect was the age of the women, with a large debate on its impact on IUI success. Age has been accepted by many authors as a major predictive factor for pregnancy after IUI [29, 30, 60].The female age was a predictive variable for the live-birth rate but not for clinical pregnancy due to the increased miscarriage rate with age dependence, as can be observed in predictive unadjusted models [9, 57, 62]. The female age became a significant variable predictive for clinical pregnancy and live-birth rate with an adjusted model designed by Van Voorhis et al. [63] and, subsequently, Hansen et al. [57].In contrast with the aforementioned authors, our results did not show a significant correlation between the women's age and the clinical pregnancy rate Table 1, which was confirmed by several studies [11, 15, 16, 28, 64, 65]. This is due both to the intervention of other factors used in patients' selection including ovarian reserve and to the low numbers of women aged 40 or the female age impacted the success of IUI. A recent study by Bakas et al. [66] demonstrated a significant negative correlation between the age of the women and the clinical outcome of IUI r = − Indeed, with the female age cut-off of 40 years, clinical pregnancy was significantly affected Table 6 as shown throughout several studies, while the pregnancy rate decreased from 13–38% to 4–12% when the women were older than 40 years [30, 60, 67].The female age impact on IUI success could be masked in our study, because only were over 35 years and over 40 years. There may be a too low power to show a significant impact of age 40 and more in the multilogistic model, even if OR for this age category was very low Moreover, a multilogistic model including age as a continuous variable showed a significant negative impact on the delivery chance. On the other hand, age may also be linked to other factors, especially the IUI attempt rank. It is logical that, with more IUI attempts, the age advances. For this reason, Aydin et al. [68] could find no significant effect of female age on the clinical pregnancy rate in the first IUI cycle. Indeed, the rank attempt is determinant for IUI success. In our study, pregnancy rates and live births decreased significantly with the rank of insemination p = and p < resp. from rank 4 for both parameters p = see Table 6. Hendin et al. [67] and Merviel et al. [30] obtained 97% and 80%, respectively, of clinical pregnancies in their first three attempts. Plosker et al. [69] advocated a passage in IVF after three failed cycles of IUI. However, Soria et al. [15] demonstrated that from the fourth IUI cycle clinical pregnancy is negatively affected, which confirms our Blasco et al. [62] proved that the number of previous IUI cycles of the patient did not show a positive association with the cycle outcome in any of the developing steps of the models. In our study, IUI attempt rank did not have a clear correlation with clinical outcomes in different COS groups, but it did show a negative correlation with live-birth rates for patients with PCOS, unexplained infertility and male factor Tables ​3 and ​5. This could be explained by the evidence of severity of infertility type throughout time with an accumulation of IUI attempt failures, while IUI as a simple technique is less efficient than other ART techniques in achieving a clinical pregnancy. Particularly for infertile couples with male factor, the sperm quality becomes the determinant for IUI success [11, 70, 71], which was shown in our findings with a positive correlation of sperm concentration Table 5. It would be difficult to determine a universal threshold for sperm concentration, and each centre should define a threshold for its population and laboratory [72]. Nevertheless, Belaisch-Allart et al. [73] and Sakhel et al. [74] determined a sperm concentration cut-off at 10 × 106/mL and 5 × 106/mL, respectively. Indeed, the impact of semen quality was weak in our study, except for concentrations <5 × 106/mL, which remains nonsignificant due to small numbers of patients 8% of included population Table 6Sperm motility also appeared as a key factor in the study of Merviel et al. [30], where the pregnancy rate declined from 41% to 19% when the sperm motility was less than 70%. In our multivariable analysis with a sperm motility cut-off at 40%, we did not find any significant correlation with IUI clinical outcomes even with a large population size. This observation is reported also by Stone et al. [75].However, the TMS cut-off at 1 × 106, which was present in 21% of the included infertile patients, was a significant predictor of IUI clinical pregnancy Table 6. This finding was confirmed by two studies [9, 10] while others determined a higher threshold of TMS at 2 × 106 [68]; 3 × 106 [62, 76]; 5 × 106 [11, 77]; 10 × 106 [63, 78]. Indeed, the IUI clinical outcomes were improved with higher TMS, from × 106 to 12 × 106 [38]. Furthermore, regarding the sperm parameters, TMS was found to be an independent factor for clinical pregnancy after IUI in accordance with many authors [28, 63, 74, 77, 79–81]. However, Ozkan et al. [82] found just a minimal influence of TMS on the IUI success after TMS is a key factor for choosing IUI treatment or IVF, although a TMS threshold value of 5 × 106 to 10 × 106 has been reported as the criterion for undergoing IVF. Nevertheless, other sperm parameters could be better predictors of sperm morphology [58]. Although the predictive weakness of conventional sperm parameters for ART clinical outcomes has been demonstrated, sperm genome decay tests [83] could become a strong diagnostic tool to achieve clinical pregnancy for infertile couples undergoing homologous predictive factors for success have been found in some studies, such as duration of infertility, body mass index [15, 60, 82, 84, 85], and smoking [37], which were not regularly noted in our records and, therefore, could not be ConclusionThis study, is in concordance with our preliminary work [86] and demonstrate that there is no significant difference in clinical outcomes between different COS protocols rFSH, uFSH, or hMG and infertility types, even after taking into account the usual prognostic factors, including the female's age, the IUI attempt rank, and the sperm quality. However, unexplained infertility had a significant impact on IUI success, which revealed the need to look for more efficient ART strategies. Furthermore, since the fourth IUI attempt or with the female aged over 40 years, clinical pregnancy declined in IUI. Regarding the sperm quality, TMS with a threshold of 5 × 106 seemed a good predictor for IUI success. Indeed, over the obtained cut-off of the chosen indicators, other ART techniques might be more favourable for IVF live-birth infertile patients with male factor, sperm concentration was a determinant to achieve pregnancy, which necessitated some additional tests, such as sperm genome decay tests, before undergoing IUI and reviewing the couple's etiological factors for antioxidant prescriptions.

Rosalie Cabry-Goubet, 1 , 2 Florence Scheffler, 1 , 2 Naima Belhadri-Mansouri, 1 Stephanie Belloc, 3 Emmanuelle Lourdel, 1 Aviva Devaux, 1 , 2 Hickmat Chahine, 4 Jacques De Mouzon, 4 Henri Copin, 1 and Moncef Benkhalifa 1 , 2 AbstractObjective To evaluate the IUI success factors relative to controlled ovarian stimulation COS and infertility type, this retrospective cohort study included 1251 couples undergoing homologous IUI. Results We achieved 13% clinical pregnancies and 11% live births. COS and infertility type do not have significant effect on IUI clinical outcomes with unstable intervention of various couples' parameters, including the female age, the IUI attempt rank, and the sperm quality. Conclusion Further, the COS used seemed a weak predictor for IUI success; therefore, the indications need more discussion, especially in unexplained infertility cases involving various factors. Indeed, the fourth IUI attempt, the female age over 40 years, and the total motile sperm count 1 × 106. The exclusion criteria were TMS ≀ 1 × 106; sperm donation; seropositivity for human immunodeficiency virus HIV for any couple member; inseminations performed in a natural cycle or with clomiphene citrate CC. IUI ProtocolAll couples had undergone a standard infertility evaluation, which included medical history, physical examination, and assessment of tubal patency by either hysterosalpingography or laparoscopy and hormonal analysis on cycle day 3. A transvaginal ultrasound scan was performed on the second day of the cycle. On the same day, ovarian stimulation was carried out with recombinant FSH follitropin α; rFSH; Gonal-F, Merck Serono, France, or follitropin ÎČ; Puregon, MSD, France, urinary FSH urofollitropin, Fostimon, France, or hMG menotropin, Menopur, France at a starting dose of 75 IU/day from the second day of the response and endometrial thickness were monitored by transvaginal ultrasonography starting on day 6 of stimulation and then on alternate days; the gonadotropin dose was adjusted according to the ovarian response and the patient's characteristics. When at least one mature follicle reached a diameter >17 mm and E2 level > 150 pmol/mL, the recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin hCG, Ovitrelle, Merck Serono, France was administered, and endometrial thickness was single IUI was performed 36 h after hCG injection using a soft catheter classic Frydman catheter; Laboratoire CCD, Paris, France or a hard catheter SET TDT, International Laboratory CDD. The semen samples used for insemination were processed within 1 hour of ejaculation by density gradient centrifugation, followed by washing with a culture medium after determining the TMS and semen analysis according to the WHO criteria [26]. Outcome VariableThe main clinical outcome measures were clinical pregnancy and live-birth rates per cycle. Clinical pregnancy was defined as the evidence of pregnancy by ultrasound examination of the gestational sac at weeks 5– Statistical AnalysisThe stimulation protocols were divided into 4 categories according to the gonadotropin used for COS rFSH/Gonal-F, rFSH/Puregon, uFSH/Fostimon, and hMG/ type was considered in seven categories cervical factor, dysovulation, endometriosis, tubal factor, male factor, and unexplained infertility. After statistical analysis of the results, it was necessary to determine the parameter cut-offs to give infertile couples more chances through IUI before carrying out other ART techniquesGroups were compared for all main couples' characteristics and cycle outcomes. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation SD or percentage of the total. Data were analysed with Student's t-test for means comparisons or with the chi-squared test for comparison of percentages using Statistical Package, version SAS; Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA; p 15 Sperm motility ≄40 % versus ≀39 TMS ≄5 × 106 versus <5 s power calculation showed a power of 80% to demonstrate a difference across the COS groups in delivery rates of 10% between groups 1 and 4 and 2 and 4, of 11% between groups 3 and 4, of 8% between groups 2 and 3, of 8% between groups 2 and 4, of 7% between groups 1 and 2, 6% between recombinant FSH and urinary products, and of 9% between FSH and HMG4. DiscussionAs a first step in ART, IUI keeps a central place in the management of infertile couples for its simplicity, but it still offers weak effectiveness. Indeed, IUI success is still a subject of controversy, with a clinical pregnancy rate between 8% and 25% [16, 18, 27–31]. Furthermore, based on a recent prospective study in seven French ART centres, the overall live-birth rate was 11% per cycle, varying from 8% to 18% between centres [9]. Similarly, we attained 13% for clinical pregnancy and 11% for live-birth for the 1251 couples who underwent homologous IUI with gonadotropins for COS Table 1.Indeed, gonadotropin use had proved its superiority to improve clinical outcomes of IUI compared to other COS protocols, such as CC and letrozole [32–38]. Erdem et al. [36] showed that, for IUI success, rFSH Gonal-F was more effective than using CC to reach 28% for clinical pregnancy and 24% of live-birth. Nevertheless, it is still not clear which of the currently available medications is preferable for COS [15, 23, 39–43]. However, several studies compared different types of gonadotropin efficiency rFSH, uFSH, or hMG [15, 25, 44–47]. Indeed, in the first part of this work, we compared four gonadotropins for COS in IUI rFSH/Gonal-F; rFSH/Puregon; uFSH/Fostimon and hMG/Menopur while rFSH was the most used in 72% of couples Table 1.This preference was noticed in other studies [9, 15, 25, 36] without finding any significant improvement on clinical outcomes. Indeed, as demonstrated in our study, there was no significant difference between different protocols used for COS rFSH/Gonal-F; rFSH/Puregon; uFSH/Fostimon; and hMG/Menopur; Table 2, although, in contrast, some authors pointed to the greater potency of rFSH [22, 48]. However, other studies have reported higher pregnancy rates for hMG [33, 49–53]. Even if our study had 80% power to demonstrate differences in PR of 6% to 11% between 2 groups, according to their size, it is clear that the differences we observed were very low, in favour of a low impact of the 4 used COS regimen on the results. This was less clear for infertility origin because of the very low numbers of some groups. However, the results of the multivariate logistic model confirmed the results observed at the first step analysis, reinforcing their valueGenerally, rFSH is commonly used to minimize the possibility of developing ovarian cysts associated with LH contamination and to improve the probability of a more consistent, effective, and efficient ovarian response [22, 48].Although there was no significant difference between the efficiency of gonadotropins for COS, other COS protocol factors could be involved to improve the clinical outcomes, especially regarding the starting dose and the total doses of treatment as proved by several studies [15, 23–25, 54].To explain the absence of a significant difference between the four COS groups, we analysed other factors relative to COS protocol female age, IUI attempt rank, and sperm quality. As expected, our studied population showed its heterogeneity involving multiple factors, which was the reason not to have a real consensus about the efficiency of COS, and this made it harder to really evaluate its impact. The sperm motility significantly affected the live-birth in rFSH groups Table 3. Furthermore, the IUI attempt rank had a significant negative correlation with clinical outcomes with unequal values between groups Table 3. Indeed, it is not legitimate to consider the COS as a strong predictive factor of clinical outcomes in IUI, while other factors could not all be controlledInfertility type has been discussed throughout several studies as a nonnegligible indicator of IUI clinical outcomes [15, 30, 38, 50, 55–59], while the latest National Institute for Health and Care Excellence NICE guideline on fertility [59] recommends that IUI should not be routinely offered to people with unexplained infertility, mild endometriosis, or mild male factor infertility who are having regular unprotected sexual this reason, in the second part of this study, we were more focused on evaluating the infertility type effect on IUI success. As a result, there was no significant difference between clinical outcomes of the different groups based on the infertility type Table 4. Although unexplained infertility was most couples' indication for IUI 36% Table 1, as noticed in the recent report of Monraisin et al. [9] with a value of 39%, the lack of significant difference in clinical outcomes with other IUI indications was not unexpected, while its aetiology kept the multifactorial profile [57] shared with other infertilities. Our results are confirmed by the recent study of [38]. However, some teams report the best pregnancy rates in cervical indications [30, 55] and in anovulation infertilities [15, 50, 56]. Indeed, the pregnancy rate per cycle for patients with anovulation due to PCOS was 13%, which was probably corrected by Controlled Ovarian Hyperstimulation COH [15]. On the other hand, endometriosis was considered a bad prognostic factor for IUI success with lower pregnancy between 6% and 9% than other IUI indications [20, 50, 60]. Indeed, endometriosis, which is among the most difficult disorders to treat [21], decreased the IUI success rate for mild compared to severe cases 6% of success rate. This fact can argue the limitation of IUI to a maximum of two to three cycles [15, 19, 50, 60, 61]. This fact could explain our weak population size in the endometriosis group with just 35 couples, while the majority of couples were directed to undergo predictors of success have been widely studied on the COS effect and the infertility type effect. The most discussed effect was the age of the women, with a large debate on its impact on IUI success. Age has been accepted by many authors as a major predictive factor for pregnancy after IUI [29, 30, 60].The female age was a predictive variable for the live-birth rate but not for clinical pregnancy due to the increased miscarriage rate with age dependence, as can be observed in predictive unadjusted models [9, 57, 62]. The female age became a significant variable predictive for clinical pregnancy and live-birth rate with an adjusted model designed by Van Voorhis et al. [63] and, subsequently, Hansen et al. [57].In contrast with the aforementioned authors, our results did not show a significant correlation between the women's age and the clinical pregnancy rate Table 1, which was confirmed by several studies [11, 15, 16, 28, 64, 65]. This is due both to the intervention of other factors used in patients' selection including ovarian reserve and to the low numbers of women aged 40 or the female age impacted the success of IUI. A recent study by Bakas et al. [66] demonstrated a significant negative correlation between the age of the women and the clinical outcome of IUI r = − Indeed, with the female age cut-off of 40 years, clinical pregnancy was significantly affected Table 6 as shown throughout several studies, while the pregnancy rate decreased from 13–38% to 4–12% when the women were older than 40 years [30, 60, 67].The female age impact on IUI success could be masked in our study, because only were over 35 years and over 40 years. There may be a too low power to show a significant impact of age 40 and more in the multilogistic model, even if OR for this age category was very low Moreover, a multilogistic model including age as a continuous variable showed a significant negative impact on the delivery chance. On the other hand, age may also be linked to other factors, especially the IUI attempt rank. It is logical that, with more IUI attempts, the age advances. For this reason, Aydin et al. [68] could find no significant effect of female age on the clinical pregnancy rate in the first IUI cycle. Indeed, the rank attempt is determinant for IUI success. In our study, pregnancy rates and live births decreased significantly with the rank of insemination p = and p < resp. from rank 4 for both parameters p = see Table 6. Hendin et al. [67] and Merviel et al. [30] obtained 97% and 80%, respectively, of clinical pregnancies in their first three attempts. Plosker et al. [69] advocated a passage in IVF after three failed cycles of IUI. However, Soria et al. [15] demonstrated that from the fourth IUI cycle clinical pregnancy is negatively affected, which confirms our Blasco et al. [62] proved that the number of previous IUI cycles of the patient did not show a positive association with the cycle outcome in any of the developing steps of the models. In our study, IUI attempt rank did not have a clear correlation with clinical outcomes in different COS groups, but it did show a negative correlation with live-birth rates for patients with PCOS, unexplained infertility and male factor Tables ​3 and ​5. This could be explained by the evidence of severity of infertility type throughout time with an accumulation of IUI attempt failures, while IUI as a simple technique is less efficient than other ART techniques in achieving a clinical pregnancy. Particularly for infertile couples with male factor, the sperm quality becomes the determinant for IUI success [11, 70, 71], which was shown in our findings with a positive correlation of sperm concentration Table 5. It would be difficult to determine a universal threshold for sperm concentration, and each centre should define a threshold for its population and laboratory [72]. Nevertheless, Belaisch-Allart et al. [73] and Sakhel et al. [74] determined a sperm concentration cut-off at 10 × 106/mL and 5 × 106/mL, respectively. Indeed, the impact of semen quality was weak in our study, except for concentrations <5 × 106/mL, which remains nonsignificant due to small numbers of patients 8% of included population Table 6Sperm motility also appeared as a key factor in the study of Merviel et al. [30], where the pregnancy rate declined from 41% to 19% when the sperm motility was less than 70%. In our multivariable analysis with a sperm motility cut-off at 40%, we did not find any significant correlation with IUI clinical outcomes even with a large population size. This observation is reported also by Stone et al. [75].However, the TMS cut-off at 1 × 106, which was present in 21% of the included infertile patients, was a significant predictor of IUI clinical pregnancy Table 6. This finding was confirmed by two studies [9, 10] while others determined a higher threshold of TMS at 2 × 106 [68]; 3 × 106 [62, 76]; 5 × 106 [11, 77]; 10 × 106 [63, 78]. Indeed, the IUI clinical outcomes were improved with higher TMS, from × 106 to 12 × 106 [38]. Furthermore, regarding the sperm parameters, TMS was found to be an independent factor for clinical pregnancy after IUI in accordance with many authors [28, 63, 74, 77, 79–81]. However, Ozkan et al. [82] found just a minimal influence of TMS on the IUI success after TMS is a key factor for choosing IUI treatment or IVF, although a TMS threshold value of 5 × 106 to 10 × 106 has been reported as the criterion for undergoing IVF. Nevertheless, other sperm parameters could be better predictors of sperm morphology [58]. Although the predictive weakness of conventional sperm parameters for ART clinical outcomes has been demonstrated, sperm genome decay tests [83] could become a strong diagnostic tool to achieve clinical pregnancy for infertile couples undergoing homologous predictive factors for success have been found in some studies, such as duration of infertility, body mass index [15, 60, 82, 84, 85], and smoking [37], which were not regularly noted in our records and, therefore, could not be ConclusionThis study, is in concordance with our preliminary work [86] and demonstrate that there is no significant difference in clinical outcomes between different COS protocols rFSH, uFSH, or hMG and infertility types, even after taking into account the usual prognostic factors, including the female's age, the IUI attempt rank, and the sperm quality. However, unexplained infertility had a significant impact on IUI success, which revealed the need to look for more efficient ART strategies. Furthermore, since the fourth IUI attempt or with the female aged over 40 years, clinical pregnancy declined in IUI. Regarding the sperm quality, TMS with a threshold of 5 × 106 seemed a good predictor for IUI success. Indeed, over the obtained cut-off of the chosen indicators, other ART techniques might be more favourable for IVF live-birth infertile patients with male factor, sperm concentration was a determinant to achieve pregnancy, which necessitated some additional tests, such as sperm genome decay tests, before undergoing IUI and reviewing the couple's etiological factors for antioxidant prescriptions.
