Combining the description of coitus interruptus as hidden infanticide with the refutation of the Jews

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, how do you reconcile the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) statement that coitus interruptus is hidden infanticide, with his statement refuting the Jews that coitus interruptus is the lesser form of infanticide?

Answer:
The reconciliation is that it became clear to him (peace and blessings be upon him) that there is no harm in the default ruling. Initially, he disliked it, but later it became clear to him that there is no blame in it.
