The Ruling on the Use of Birth Control Pills
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on using birth control pills after a woman has completed her waiting period, out of fear that she will become pregnant and that would harm the nursing infant?
Answer:
There is a distinction here according to the scholars. If the deceased had an illness, there is no harm in taking them for a period of time, such as one or two years, or if she has an illness in her womb or elsewhere. However, if there is no cause, it is not permissible to take them for the duration of the pregnancy, because the existence of the pregnancy is a desired matter.
