What is the ruling regarding children born from our enemies’ rape of Muslim women? Is the mother compelled, by Sharia, to complete the pregnancy and raise the child? Is she sinful if she aborts it? To whom is the child attributed, and how should his mother deal with him in the future?
There is no difference between aborting a fetus resulting from rape, adultery, or a valid marriage; its ruling has been previously established. Children are attributed to their mothers, and the mother is responsible for caring for her child.
