The ruling on preventing pregnancy for five years by mutual agreement between the spouses

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The sister questioner, Umm Muram, says: What is the ruling on preventing pregnancy for more than five or six years, if this is by mutual agreement with my husband, even though I am in good health, and my husband and I have decided to have only two children?

Answer:
This is not permissible as long as the woman is capable of bearing children and can manage it and the feeding of the children. Therefore, limiting the number of children is not permissible. Rather, children are sought after and offspring are desired, even if the husband agrees. Yes.
