Assisting a pregnant woman at the site of a fire, followed by her premature delivery
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The woman was in her seventh month of pregnancy. She had returned to her neighbors' house twenty-two years ago. She went to fetch water from the well and walked about two hundred meters to the site of the fire. There were children and women trapped inside the fire until they extinguished it. After they were done, she sat for five days feeling exhausted.
The Shaykh:
I mean, she escaped from the fire.
The questioner:
No, she opened the fire.
The Shaykh:
She helps them, she helps them.
The questioner:
She is useful in saving the children and those inside the fire.
The Shaykh:
She owes nothing.
The questioner:
After five days, she gave birth to twins. One of them lived for perhaps eight hours, then he passed away.
The Shaykh:
She owes nothing. She performed a prescribed act of good by helping them. She owes nothing.
The questioner:
May Allah keep you safe.
