Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. This man says: My wife is four months pregnant, but she suffers from many illnesses. Is she permitted to abort this fetus?
Answer:
She is not allowed to do so unless the trustworthy doctors determine that continuing the pregnancy poses a danger to her life. In that case, the report is presented to the scholars, and they issue whatever ruling they deem appropriate. As for terminating fetuses and manipulating the pregnancy, that is not permissible. Yes.
