Question:
The questioner says: I am pregnant, but I am ill. Yes. I am pregnant, but I have a heart condition, and the doctor advised me to terminate the pregnancy, knowing that I am in the early months. What should I do?
Answer:
It is not permissible to terminate the pregnancy unless a medical committee decides that its continuation poses a danger to the mother's life. If a committee consisting of three trustworthy doctors decides that the continuation of the pregnancy endangers the mother's life, then it is permissible to terminate it.
