I wish men would genuinely instead of looking at birth control as “oh people use it cause of c wide spread ziina,” ( no shade sir, still made somewhat good points ), that they would research history as how common children were dying and how child birth was the number one cause of death for women.
Men need to understand how dangerous as you said back to back pregnancy is, and how the women in my life had to do intensive surgeries as a result of unnecessary c sections and pregnancies and not listening to the doctor warning them about having multiple children.
How many men out here will push their wives for more kids, despite just having 3 kids back to back, or multiple c sections ? These men at times will ignore the doctors advice and their wife’s health just to have more kids.
We don’t have these types of conversations in our culture and it showing in the men of today, who only focus on the evils of birth control.
Angelina, if you only had seen the amount of women I knew who cried to me about how all the kids they had back to back wrecked havoc on their health and bodies, and how they all told me… every single one of them… how they wish they could’ve gone back and had two kids at the most.
These friends of mine all have to use secret forms of birth control cause their husbands keep making them have more children.
Family planning is allowed in Islam. That is my understanding. That means married couple not engaging in sex for awhile or performing 'azl (men pulling out......), etc.
That being said, one should not ignore the side effects of today's "contraceptive measures" especially to women's health and their future offspring (https://nwhn.org/hormone-risk-throu...f9kDAIduFx3MSjAnHZPNsIgYRSrMgPx0aAr1VEALw_wcB).
We should also not ignore its other effects on people's declining morals. Because of the publicity that it prevents pregnancy, many are engaging in sex out of the wedlock, thinking they would not get pregnant. And since those contraceptives fail sometimes, they resort to getting an abortion because they don't want the child in this stage in their lives or may be didn't even want to have children at all. So in essence, deploying contraceptives lead to abortion for many unmarried women. This is where the banning of the birth control is being discussed in many conservative states in the US.
At the end, functioning societies need a moral code, and saving human life should be the center of that moral code. Societies can't discuss the immoral culture of taking the life of the unborn without discussing the leading causes to that heinous crime. Deploying contraceptive bills and other methods of birth control are some of the leading causes to that problem simply because they don't always prevent pregnancy - nothwithstanding to women's heath and their future offspring.
