Brain Death

Question
What is the ruling on brain death according to the principles of the school?
Answer

I say, and with God's success: If trusted doctors inform that the person can only survive on machines, and there is no hope for their return to their original life, then their family has the choice to keep the machines on or to remove them, and God knows best.
