Aborting the fetus due to the wife's lack of desire

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: My wife is pregnant in her first month, according to the doctor, and I do not desire her. I have resolved to divorce her. His question is: Is it permissible for us to abort the fetus in her womb because we do not want to continue the life?

Answer:
It is not permissible for you to do this. Perhaps Allah will benefit you with this fetus, so do not abort it. Rather, it is a blessing from Allah, Mighty and Majestic.
