Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is family planning permissible in the Shari'ah, and do I obey my parents if they order me to practice coitus interruptus with my wife on the grounds of family planning?
Answer:
It is not permissible to limit or regulate the number of children, except if the intention is to delay pregnancy, because a woman cannot bear consecutive pregnancies and cannot endure them. It is permissible for her to take what delays pregnancy until she has nursed the child she has and is prepared to receive a new pregnancy. This is permissible if the woman needs this. As for a healthy and strong woman, it is not permissible for her to limit or regulate the number of children in a way that reduces the number, and this is not permissible. Yes.
