An article about family planning in Islam enumerating the three conditions that permits birth control among them. It also includes a narration that the birth control was referred to Caliphs Umar B. Khattab and Ali B. Abu Talib. They opined that birth control or abortion is infanticide unless the fetus has passed the seven stages of human life development in the womb of the mother concluding that Islam neither commanded nor forbade family planning or birth control in the Quaran. Neither is it discouraged in the Hadith except when there is no reason for doing it and when the fetus is more than 120 days or four months old in the womb and does not put the life of the mother in danger.
