I remember we were talking about terminating pregnancy some days ago. Now, let’s ask ourselves: is Down Syndrome a legitimate reason to terminate a pregnancy?
For us to understand the position of Islam, we first need to understand that deformity is not just one blanket category. The Islamic law looks at abnormalities differently based on how severe they are and how they impact life.
The first category covers defects that are minor or correctable, such as a cleft lip, an extra finger, or a clubfoot. These are things modern medicine can easily fix or manage, and they do not threaten the child's life.
The second category covers conditions that are completely incompatible with life. This means gross abnormalities, e.g: a fetus missing a major part of the brain or skull, where doctors know the child has zero chance of survival after birth or will face immediate, excruciating medical agony.
Then we have the category of general genetic conditions, which is exactly where Down syndrome sits.
With Down syndrome, there is a physical or intellectual disability, however, the individual can still live, breathe, experience joy, and survive with the right care and family support. It is a lifelong challenge, but it is not a terminal deformity that makes life impossible.
Now that we know where Down Syndrome falls, what does the rule says:
First of all, as far as terminating pregnancy is concern in Islam, the timing is everything. And the major boundary is 120 days from conception. This is the point where the soul is blown into the fetus.
Before 120 days, major juristic councils, such as the Islamic Fiqh Council of the Muslim World League, do permit a concession for termination under strict medical duress.
If a panel of trustworthy, expert doctors confirms that a fetus falls into that severe category of being incompatible with life, or faces extreme, continuous medical agony, a concession is granted.
Because of the anticipated severe hardship on families, many contemporary scholars allow Down syndrome to fall under this early window, but ONLY if it is proven by specialized experts before the 120-day deadline.
But once you cross the 120-day mark, the door closes completely. The fetus is now a full human soul with an absolute right to life.
After that threshold, terminating a pregnancy for Down syndrome, or ANY deformity, is strictly haram. It is viewed as a direct transgression against a living soul. The only exception that overrides the law after 120 days is if keeping the pregnancy will literally kill the mother.
As for the minor or correctable deformities, it is strictly haram to abort them at ANY stage, even before 120 days. You cannot terminate a life over something that can be managed.
Islam does not allow abortion based on the secular idea of my body-my choice, financial fear, or lifestyle disruption. Islam understands the boundary so we do not turn a medical mercy into an excuse for convenience or eugenics.
Allah knows best.
@meinmokhtar Nuchal tranlucency scan or NT scan or nak senang faham,ketebalan cecair di belakang tengkuk baby. Boleh buat sebelum 13w. Pengalaman sendiri,doc detect tebal cecair tu lebih 3mm,terus buat ujian darah NIPT utk tengok chromosome abnormalities. Tapi alhamdulillah semua okay 👍
Rezeki haram bukan sekadar mencuri dan rasuah, ianya juga:
1. Dapat kerja sebab cable
2. WFH tapi buat kerja lain
3. Kerja tak cukup jam
Semua tu tak berkat.
Benda bodoh.
Kita tak pernah kurang jururawat. Kita boleh hasilkan beribu jururawat setiap tahun.
Tapi jururawat ini, pindah luar. Kenapa? Gaji tak setimpal.
Kalau bidang professional pun dah mula masuk orang luar, masak kita.
Bagi la bang.. bagi lagi.. cakap elok-elok tak mau dengar.. bagi nada keras macamni baru ada akai sikit.. walaupun keras, tapi inilah hakikatnya.
Ni kalau geng-geng terpaling hiking dengar ni sakit telinga dia 😭
“I cook for my husband”= You’re a slave
“We split the bills”= Your husband is useless
“I spoil my wife”= You’re a simp
“I dress modestly”= You’re in an abusive marriage
“My wife and I make decisions together”= You’re not a real man
“I can’t do random nights out because I’m married” = You’re husband/wife is controlling
“My wife earns more than me”= You’re a useless leech
“My husband is the breadwinner”= You have no say since you bring nothing to the table
“I don’t need a male/female bestie because I’m married”= Your partner is insecure
This is how some of you see the world 😂
Y’all are far too pathetic and miserable to really understand what goes into making a marriage successful. Happy couples should keep it to themselves because you guys will find a fault in everything they do.
Turmeric needs black pepper to activate. Garlic needs fat to release its compounds. Tomatoes need heat to unlock lycopene. Food science is real. Cook with intention and your food becomes medicine.
Bu kombinasyonu kullan, sonra bana teşekkür edersin. Anında olması şart değil, önemli olan zamanla koltuk altlarının daha açık ve sağlıklı hale gelmesi 😍
Its not Malaysian hospitality that's bringing them in though. Its greedy capitalists that don't want to pay proper wages and protections to Malaysians so they import cheap foreign labour.
All this criticism of foreigners are moot if we don't address the real root; Capital.
