Temporary ligation

Submitted by admin on Wed, 2017-02-01 07:32

Q: In my first pregnancy I had a complication which put the baby life at risk and so the baby was born early. Doctors are saying that I am at very high risk of this happening again. The first time the condition that was life threatening to us both was picked up in time so shukr we both are fine. With this warning should I have more children or rather not? If it is life threatening to the mother is it allowed to sterilize?

A: Don't think of sterilizing. You may opt for temporary ligation.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
