Peace be with you all!
Thanks for posting that article, Fatima - it was quite interesting.
I'm very pro-life! I lose sleep over the thought of abortion - it breaks my heart!
I'm a little confused. As far as I know, abortion is completely forbidden in only 4 places - Chile, El Salvador, Malta & Vatican City. According to my extensive research, Islamic countries make exceptions to the rule. Why is that? Under what circumstances should the life of a baby (foetus) be compromised?
Also, what are the reasons for Islam allowing divorce?
One more thing... what is Islam's position regarding contraception, IVF & cloning?
Thank you so much! If you ever have questions relating to Catholicism, I'm more than happy to answer them :)
Take care!
