The Question Of When Life Starts In Islam
Some contraceptives ( e.g IUDs/ plan b) can work by either preventing ovulation ( the release of the female egg that will be fertilised) or stopping implantation ( the process of the already fertilised zygote/ blastocyst attached to the uterine lining where it will grow into a baby). I have read there is a difference of opinion with regard to such contraceptives that can stop pregnancy by way of stopping implantation. This is because they believe it be similar or closer to abortion. While others who believe pregnancy starts at implantation rather than fertilisation ( the fusion of the egg and sperm) so don’t see it much different to other types of contraceptives that primarily stop fertilisation. Medically, a successful pregnancy will occur when both fertilisation and implantation happen. Infact sometimes an egg is fertilised and fails to implant even normally and simply passes through the female passage in the next menstrual cycle. What would be the ruling regarding such contraceptives? Are these similar or different to ones that primarily stop fertilisation? Pregnancy ( I believe )starts at implantation but when does life start in Islam?
