Is it permissible for a woman to take contraception to regulate pregnancy because the children are numerous and their mischief is great, and they need upbringing?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Also, is it permissible for a woman to take contraception to regulate pregnancy; because the children are numerous and some are on top of others, their mischief is great, and they need upbringing?

Answer:
This is not permissible unless there is harm to her or to the children from the succession of pregnancies. If there is harm to her or to the children from the succession of pregnancies, there is no harm in her taking something to delay pregnancy until she is free from raising this child and breastfeeding him. However, if the situation is stable, it is not permissible to prevent pregnancy or delay it. This is not permissible; because pregnancy is sought. If her condition is stable, and there is no harm to her or to her children from the succession of pregnancies, then it is not permissible to take contraception. Yes.
