The Ruling on Aborting a Fetus Expected to Be Disabled

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Another question similar to this one says that the doctors informed her that the child in her womb will be born disabled, so is it permissible for her to abort it?

Answer:
No, and this is not permissible. She leaves it to Allah; Allah has taken charge of it, and He has a disabled one. She leaves it and does not kill a soul on the pretext that it is disabled. This is not permissible.
