Question

Inshallah, we will be migrating to another country and we will make the dar-ul-uloom our residence for the next 5-7 years. Is birth control permissible for this situation? Not only will we be in a foreign land, I will be studying as well, so two obstacles face us. Jazakullah Khairun.

Answer

It is permissible.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
