Contraceptives

Q: My question is regarding the Islamic teachings of having offsprings after marriage as Islam strictly prohibits the birth control methods. I have three kids. All unplanned and my husband blames me for having them as he suggested to abort the second and third one. Allah blessed me with a boy and two girls but my husband keeps saying at least 5-10 times per day that we have a lot of children and blames me for having them. What should I do? How to save myself from the mental trauma as he blames every single thing on having babies?

A: Refer to http://muftionline.co.za/node/15972 and http://muftionline.co.za/node/15612.

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