Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Abu Yusuf from the Noble Makkah says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah bless you. My wife has had two cesarean sections. The first time, we were blessed with twins, and the second time, we were blessed with a daughter. Is it forbidden for me to prevent her from becoming pregnant again out of concern for her regarding a third operation, a third cesarean section?
Answer:
It is not permissible to prevent pregnancy except out of dire necessity. If there is danger to her life, and the doctors write this in a decision they sign, then you bring it to the Ifta authority and they look into it. As for preventing pregnancy without a religious ruling, this is not permissible. Yes.
