What is the ruling on aborting a fetus by order of a doctor?

Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: Is it permissible to abort a fetus by order of a doctor to ensure the safety of the mother?

Answer:
Aborting the fetus is not permissible, even if the doctor orders it, except if a report from a reliable medical committee states that the continuation of the pregnancy in the mother will take her life, if it takes her life and there is a fear that she will die.
And this is by a report from a committee, not by the report of one doctor. So there is no harm in terminating it. As for what some doctors do, aborting the fetus without a Shari'ah ruling, but rather by their own discretion, this is forbidden. Matters have regulations; they are not chaos. Matters have regulations, so a medical report from a reliable medical committee of experts is required, stating that the continuation of this pregnancy in this woman will take her life or that there is a fear for her life. In that case, it is permissible to terminate it. Yes.
