There is no doubt that contraceptives, whether pills or medications,
are contrary to what is prescribed.
And contrary to what the Prophet ﷺ wants from his umma.
For the Prophet ﷺ wants his umma to increase in number.
As he ﷺ said: Marry loving, fertile women, for I will boast of your numbers. And Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has bestowed a favor.
upon the Children of Israel by granting them abundance.
He said: And We made you greater in number, and Shu'ayb reminded his people about their numbers, saying: And remember when you were few, then He increased you.
And any attempt to reduce offspring in the Islamic umma is nothing but a deception from the enemies of the Muslims.
Whether they are hypocrites who pretend to be Muslim.
Or from the disbelievers who.
Openly declare their enmity towards the Muslims.
But sometimes necessity calls for it.
To reduce childbirth.
Because the mother cannot bear it, and it causes her harm.
In that case, we say there is no problem with that.
With that, and he takes
the lesser of two harms.
And the sahaba, may Allah be pleased with them, used to practice withdrawal.
During the time of the Prophet ﷺ, and they were not forbidden from that.
Even though the Messenger ﷺ was asked about withdrawal and he said: It is hidden infanticide.
This indicates that even though it is permissible,
there is something disliked about it.
On this occasion, I would like
to point out a phenomenon that was mentioned to us.
It is that many of those giving birth in hospitals,
are keen for the birth to be
by surgical procedure,
which is called a cesarean section.
And I fear that this may be a plot
against the Muslims, because the more births happen in this way,
Weak. The skin.
The abdomen, and pregnancy has become dangerous for the woman.
And she can no longer bear it, and some people from private hospitals told me.
That many women were brought to the hospitals and they decided that a C-section was necessary.
But she came to this private hospital and gave birth naturally.
And he mentioned more than eighty cases in about a month, or a little less or a little more.
This means that the matter.
Is serious and we must pay attention to it.
We must pay attention to it, and know.
That childbirth inevitably involves pain.
And it inevitably involves hardship; his mother carried him with hardship and delivered him with hardship.
And it's not just that when a woman feels labor pains, she goes and delivers the baby.
So that she does not feel it, natural birth is better than induced delivery.
Whether by caesarean section or otherwise, but yes, if there is unusual hardship.
Then at that time she goes, and she should be cautious about caesareans, be cautious.
