What is the ruling regarding a woman who aborted her pregnancy twice after committing adultery, and then repented?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Whoever committed adultery and abortion has committed two great sins: adultery, which is an abomination, and unlawful abortion, the prohibition of which increases after 120 days when the soul is breathed into it, making it an act of killing a soul. Sincere repentance is obligatory, for Allah accepts the repentance of His repenting servants and erases their sins.
