Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is Umm Muhammad, and she says: What is the ruling on a woman whom the doctors ordered to stop working and rest, because it is dangerous for her and her fetus, and because of the pregnancy? She went against the opinions of these doctors and worked, and as a result of the fatigue, she miscarried a dead fetus in the fifth month?
Answer:
Yes, if the doctors forbade her from working and stated that it would affect the fetus, and she went against their advice, and her work caused the fetus to be miscarried, then she is sinful, and she owes the blood money (diyah) for the fetus, and she must fast two consecutive months as expiation. Yes.
