Abortion

… permissible or not under islam?

Religion forum question innit.

There are extreme circumstances which involve extreme risk to the mothers life, under which it is allowed, , but other than that, its not allowed to be used as a means of birth control or for erasing ones sins/mistakes.

:k:

“Kill not your children on a plea of want. We will provide sustenance for you and for them. Come not near shameful deeds whether open or secret. Take not life which God has made sacred except by way of justice and law. Thus He commands you that you may learn wisdom.” (6:151)

Life and death is in Allah’s hands, Human beings should not ‘Play God’, shuld not abort child if under pressure in life, Allah will help sustain for it !
the idea that…‘The woman is in full control off her body so she can do what she likes with child’, this is one logical idea that modern materalistic world has today :nook:

Not ever permissible.

Ever.

Abraham was ready to sacrifice his son before God.

God understood Abraham's rightiousness and disallowed his sacrafice.

God did not want his people to be compared to the pagans that did this naturally in their day to day beliefs.

Not even when you were raped, or even if the baby will be misformed and a moron and it will kill you in birth?

Allah Ta'ala says in the Quran:** Life is from a decree of my Lord. (Sura 12
verse 85) *the above verse is self explanatory on the sanctity and
significance of life. Generally every decree is from Allah Taala but the
honour of attribution increases its sanctity and demands its highest level
of reference. This command is mentioned in many verses of the Quran: Allah
Ta ala says: *
"Whosoever has spared the life of a soul, it is as though he
has spared the life of all people. Whosoever has killed a soul, it is as
though he has murdered all of mankind." **(sura 5 verse 32) The fact that
every one soul is equivalent to all of mankind clearly indicates the value
of every life.

The above should suffice to express the sanctity of the Rooh (life). It is
not permissible under any circumstances to destroy a rooh. The jurists have
mentioned the life enters the foetus upon 120 days. From then onwards the
foetus is a living human being.

Under no circumstances will it be permissible to abort the child. Allah
Taala in his infinite knowledge knows the circumstances, inspite of Him
Being Most Merciful, He has endowed the foetus with life. Can our deficient
mercy to abort the child be compared to Allah Ta ala s Infinite Mercy to
sustain the child. The heights of His Infinite Wisdom cannot be reached or
comprehended. The importance of the biggest problem in the circumstances
cannot be equivalent to the importance of the Rooh (life). It is too dear to
be discarded. Before 120 days too, it is not permissible to abort the child.
However, it may be permissible to abort before 120 days in the following
instances:

5) Rape
6) Incest
7) Sexual interference with the mentally retarded
8) Foetal deformity for eg. anencephacy (no brain)
5) Foetal deformity for eg. congenital rubella health.

In view of the above, it is not permissible for a mother to abort her
child.

Quite contradicting statements here:

What verse of the Quran do you have to support your 120 day theory?

Will the conceived "child" of the above mentioned cases not have a soul. ( in the future, that we have just deprived it of )?

Do we have any right to end a life after it has been conceived??

Do souls actually die ........... or just return to God. Its the body thats mortal.

peace & love

This is a Statement by a religious scholar, who does claim to follow the shariya.. and if an Mufti advices you to do stuff by all means you may becasue Mufti is a person who is well informed person and approved by the 10 scholar of the Fatwa department.

Conduct a reserach of your own... and if you still think its not permisible.. then dont kill the life before it comes out in this world.

Jazak Allah.

I'd choose God over Mufti any day.

"Life begins at conception"

Mufti is a person if you follow him the sin wont be given to u but will be given to the Mufti himself casue we are naev and he is the one who hold more credibilty in muslim scholar.

:confused:

everyone is answerable for his/her own deeds…
mufti for his wrong verdict…
follower for not looking into it properly…

They Hold extesive knowledge of deen and sunnah… so why not utilize and hear what the say and later do research on it.

but dont expect them to bear the burden of ur mistakes....

Quran 7:38
*.... "Our Lord! it is these that misled us: so give them a double penalty in the fire." He will say: "doubled for all": but this you do not understand. *
