Resolution  No.(204) (14/2014), by The Board of Iftaa', Researches and Islamic Studies:

"Ruling on Aborting the Pregnancy Resulting from Rape"

Date: (16/Zolqhidah/1435  A.H); (11/9/2014  A.D)

 

 

All perfect praise be to Allah. May His blessings and peace be upon Prophet Mohammad and upon his family and companions:

The Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies reviewed, in its eleventh session held on Thursday: (16/Zolqhidah/1435  A.H); (11/9/2014  A.D), the questions sent by some citizens regarding: the ruling on aborting the fetus conceived from incest .

After careful study and deliberation, the Board decided:

Rape is one of the most heinous crimes that involves aggression against man`s dignity and inflicts harm on his soul; therefore, the Muslim scholars have considered it from the “Harabah” (banditry) which makes mischief through the land and violates the honor of human beings, so rapists shall receive the punishment as promised by Allah, The Almighty (What means): “That is their disgrace in this world, and a heavy punishment is theirs in the Hereafter.” {Al-Maidah/33}.

As the pregnancy resulting from this heinous crime leads to multiplying its harm, inciting trials and enmity amongst the members of society, the Board deems guiding the victim to visit the Iftaa` Department so as to understand  the accompanying circumstances of the case and those of the pregnancy as well as that which affects the Sharia ruling in this regard. This is in order for the Board to review each case independently and issue a ruling in line with that which achieves benefit and wards off harm since necessity is assessed and answered proportionately. We beseech Allah to avert us such trials. And Allah Knows Best.

Summarized Fatawaa

Which is better, to pray at a prayer place (Musala) whereas many people pray in it, or at a near by mosque in which a few people perform prayer?

Praying at the mosque that has a bigger number is better so long as the number of praying people at the other mosque permits performing prayers in congregation. And Allah Knows Best.

 If a disposable water bottle has the logo (Al-Aziz Water Shop) ,is it allowed to throw it away considering that (Al-Aziz) is one of Allah`s beautiful names?

All perfect praise be to Allah the Lord of the Worlds. May His peace and blessings be upon Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.
You can remove some of the letters so that the word isn`t read as (Al-Aziz). And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.

I am a woman, and my natural menstrual cycle lasts six days. In the evening, I perform the testimony (Tashahhud) for myself, and then I engage in sexual intercourse with my husband. After intercourse, I experience bleeding, either immediately or the next day. Is my intercourse with my husband during this time forbidden?
 

It seems that your menstrual cycle lasts seven days, not six. Therefore, you should wait until the bleeding stops, then perform ghusl and pray. And Allah Knows Best.

What is the ruling o associations (Whereas a person who have money buys a commodity for a person and  and gets a profit on it)?

It is permissible for a person to buy a commodity for someone's else and have a profit/loss on it
