Is abortion permissible out of fear that the child will be abnormal?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : The important point is that abortion after the soul has been breathed in is not permissible.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : No, no, let me finish my point. It is not permissible unless the living mother is exposed to death. As for abortion before the soul is breathed in, this is permissible if the reason justifying it is permissible by the Shari'ah. So every reason must be studied on its own. Where is... what Allah willed.
