Ruling on taking pregnancy-stimulating pills for a woman over forty
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a woman is suffering from a serious illness, and the specialist doctor informed her of the harm and difficulty of her becoming pregnant after the age of forty. Is it permissible for her to take stimulating pills to conceive twins, since her age is now close to forty?
Answer:
It appears to be a pregnancy, or like the pregnancy of two children, and in the case of a single child? Also, the matter of the doctors is not sufficient with just her doctor; it is necessary to have a report from an established medical committee, which is then presented to her own institution, similar to the issue of the salam, where a report from an established medical committee regarding this woman and her condition is presented to the Ifta Committee, and Allah willing, they will proceed with what is most correct.
