Ruling on performing a sterilization procedure for a woman suffering from insanity
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In another question, you say: A woman is suffering from a mental condition, and during her pregnancy she hits her children and screams, leaves the house, wanders aimlessly, and exposes her private parts in front of people. The point is that it is a state of insanity that worsens during pregnancy. This woman has more than six children, both sons and daughters. When I saw her condition in this state, I advised her husband to use any means to prevent pregnancy. Indeed, after she gave birth to her last child, they performed a procedure on her so that she would not become pregnant again. I did this out of compassion for her and her children. Do I have a sin for that? And how do I expiate for it if I have sinned?
Answer:
If the reality is as you described in the question, then you have done well, and there is no blame on you; because this is a great calamity, so treating it by avoiding pregnancy is important if there is no other treatment, yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
