Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is it permissible to take birth control pills or not? If there is a need, such as the woman being unable to bear a child due to her illness, or that she is nursing a child and the infant would be harmed by her pregnancy.
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with taking the pills that delay pregnancy for another period. There is nothing wrong with taking the pills that delay pregnancy until a time when she is able to accept a pregnancy. However, if there is no need, and the woman is able to bear a child and is not harmed by it, it is not permissible to take the pills. Yes.
