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.

What is the ruling on a woman driving a car?

All Perfect Praise is to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds, and may His Peace and Blessinsg be upn our Prophet Muhammad and upon all of his family and compnions.

It is permissible for the woman to drive a car, but it is impermissible for her to travel unaccompanied by a Mahram (Unmarriageable kin). And Allah The Exalted Knows Best.

A person bought a device through a usurious bank, and receives income from it every month after paying the bank for the price. Now the person regrets it, what should he do now?

This person has fallen into what is forbidden due to dealing with usury. He must repent sincerely, and whoever repents, Allah Will Accept their repentance. As for the device, there is no need to sell it. And Allah Knows Best

I am a doctor, and sometimes I refer patients to the hospital for surgical interventions, and they give me a commission from the fees of the surgeries, even though I do not perform these surgeries. What is the ruling?

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of The Worlds, and may His Peace and Blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all of his family and companions.
If this commission is charged to the patient as part of the operation costs, then it is not permissible. Additionally, a doctor should only recommend surgery if there is a genuine medical need, and the hospital should only perform an operation when necessary. And Allah The Almighty Knows Best.
