Abortion Due To Rape

Abstract

In essence, the practice of abortion is not allowed or prohibited because it is tantamount to killing a
human being, but if the abortion is an attempt to protect or save the mother, then Islamic law allows it
with strict terms and conditions. Thus, formulating the abortion fiqh that allows abortion of pregnancy
due to rape (safe abortion) is the right step to overcome the problems faced by women who are victims,
as an effort to prevent maternal death. Abortion in this case can be categorized as an emergency.
