Delaying having kids after marriage for few years?

Re: Delaying having kids after marriage for few years?

In your haste at picking at a comment out of context you may have forgotten to read the rest of my post. The point I was making was about the acceptability of birth control in Islam. The Prophet pbuh said that when the child is meant to be conceived he/she will be, hence using birth control is not against Islam and does not equate to killing off your potential children. If you want to take that as cue to have unprotected sex for the length of your married life then that’s your choice.

And yeah, I fully support the Zakat system as a means to eradicate poverty. Simple yet effective if implemented properly, but that will never happen in our capitalist system.
