Birth Control & Abortion In Islam

Birth control, or family planning through contraception, has become a common practice. Many new methods of permanent and temporary contraception have become widespread. Muslims have increasingly begun adopting the means of limiting or spacing out procreation, which raises several ethical and religious questions, especially regarding abortion. This book systematically presents the relevant rules and regulations of Islamic law on these issues, based on the Holy Qur'an, Sunna, and legal rulings of the four major Sunni schools of Islamic law. The author’s simple writing style guides the reader through Islamic teachings on birth control and abortion, providing concise and essential information about the subject.
