Will the fetus that was aborted due to its failure to grow in size and the increase in the surrounding amniotic fluid, and whose condition was not thoroughly investigated due to the mother's young age at the time, intercede for its parents on the Day of Resurrection?

We ask Allah the Almighty to reward you for the loss of the fetus and to compensate you with something better. The fetus will be an intercessor for its parents on the Day of Judgment, and this has been explained previously. As for abortion, it is permissible out of necessity if the survival of the fetus poses a danger to the mother's life; otherwise, it is prohibited.
