| Asalaam-alaikum, I'm a new convert from Chrisitanity to Islam, the true religion. I'm still in the process of learning soooo many things. The one thing that is bothering me is the topic of controlling child-birth. I did learn that Islam does not allow a woman to have any procedure or surgery done to prevent her from having children, unless it is necessiated for critical health purposes. She is allowed to control the time between each child. My problem is, while I was a Christian, I had my tubes tied (tubal ligation) after I had my third child. Now that I have embraced Islam, I don't know what to do. I know the procedure can be reversed but it would be very expensive. If I have to get it done, then I cannot afford it. Thinking about all these aspects is very frustrating. Can somebody advise me what to do? Jazak Allah Khair Raina Balouch |

| [slm] Do you want more kids? I am not a scholar, nor a learned one, but I am pretty sure you don't have to worry about this. The tubal happened before your shahadah. |
