Question:
The questioner says: A woman delivered her fetus in the seventh month, so does she owe an expiation?
Answer:
Yes, if the soul has been breathed into it. The soul is breathed into the fetus at the completion of four months. So if the soul has been breathed into it and she causes it to be aborted, this is killing a soul, and she owes an expiation, which is freeing a slave. If she does not find one, she must fast two consecutive months. She also owes blood money, which is five camels, the value of five camels. Yes.
