Is abortion permissible after confirming pregnancy, given that the first child is not yet two years old, and the wife is suffering from deteriorating health, along with her fear of not being able to care for two children, and her apprehension of God's wrath?

It is permissible to abort the fetus if its age is less than forty days to avert harm. If its age is between forty and one hundred and twenty days (before the ensoulment), then aborting it is a matter of scholarly disagreement. It appears that it is not forbidden if there is a valid excuse, such as the woman's health condition or her need to care for her infant. Nevertheless, it is preferable to keep the fetus as much as possible.
