Abortion is absolutely impermissible unless it poses a danger to the mother's life or causes her unbearable harm. Temporarily suspending pregnancy for a valid reason, however, is permissible. The expiation for an abortion that occurred without a Shar'i (Islamic legal) justification is sincere repentance, seeking forgiveness, and increasing good deeds and supererogatory acts of worship.
