The ruling on tying the womb of a healthy woman

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on tying the womb for a healthy woman if her husband agrees to it?

Answer:
It is not permissible. This is not permissible because it has no valid legal basis in the Shari'ah, and pregnancy is desired. It is not permissible to prevent pregnancy except in the case of an illness that harms her or threatens her life. If this is confirmed by doctors and they write a report stating that pregnancy is dangerous for her, and the report is submitted to the Ifta' Authority, then a fatwa is issued accordingly. As for her taking action on her own, or her husband taking action on his own, this is not permissible. Yes.
