Women working
Question
Is it permissible to use contraceptive medications to delay having children because the couple is studying and working in a tough field (e.g. medicine)?
Answer
The wife should remain at home and it is not at all ethical and respectful for a woman to be working out.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
