In Islam, if someone is forced to engage in a haram (forbidden) act to save their life, the principle of necessity (darura) allows for exceptions to strict prohibitions. The ruling is:

1. **Principle of Necessity:** In life-threatening situations, the principle of necessity permits engaging in otherwise haram actions if it is the only way to preserve life.

2. **Minimal Engagement:** The haram act should be limited to what is necessary to preserve life, avoiding excess.

3. **Repentance and Compensation:** After the immediate danger is resolved, the individual should seek forgiveness through repentance (tawbah) and make amends as appropriate.

This principle ensures that the preservation of life takes precedence while maintaining a framework for ethical conduct.
