Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Peace be upon you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner says: I am the mother of a disabled daughter who is unable to do anything. This daughter has reached puberty, and I am unable to take care of her. Is it permissible for me to have her undergo a sterilization operation so that she does not menstruate, because I am afraid for her after I am gone? How does he say? May Allah reward you. She is a mother and has a disabled daughter who is unable to do anything. This daughter has reached puberty, and I am unable to take care of her. Is it permissible for me to have her undergo a sterilization operation so that she does not menstruate, because I am afraid for her after I am gone?
Answer:
This is not permissible. This is a harm to her. It is better for her to marry and have children. Perhaps she will be granted offspring or a righteous son who will take care of her. Therefore, it is not permissible to cut off her ability to have children, in case Allah grants her offspring. Yes. And do not fear for her after you are gone; the One who created her will take care of her, Glorified and Exalted is He. Yes.
