Contraception

[Muslimah]

Muslimah, you mentioned that people shan't use contraception out of fear of poverty because Allah sustains. Would it be permissable to use contraception to preserve a high quality of life? For example, if a country is flooded with children, the environment will take a blow, the economy will suffer, and disease will spread more quickly unless the country can muster up enough resources to care for all the children and their parents.[/quote:6a0d04f689]Hi peace did u ponder on the verse. I exactly know what u mean and trying to discuss this specific point.

Well I will give u a worldly example.

See two of Allah's 99 Names and Attributes are "Baset: One Who extends" and "Qabed: One who contracts". Now earth being part of His creation, withing the ability of those two Names for example Muslims during haj (pilgrimage) are able to all gather in the same area every year regardless of the number which increases every year. No matter, 1.5, 1.9, 1.4 million are able every year to gather in the same spot (Mina and A`araft). You think Allah Is not capable of extending the land to accomodate the increasing number who are all compelled to stay in this place for about 4 days. He Sure Is more than Capable. He Sat the Haj rules, He Has to make it easy and possible for His servant. Did I explain this clear enough? well another example. A personal one. Three years ago, on a Sat morning my uncle passed away. Next Sat my 3.5 (now) year old nephew was born. See He Knows how to Manage His kingdom Peace. He sure Does.

let me know if this is clear enough.
