Further,
please note that the sperm in itself has also its life,
but process of creation in the shape of child can not start
from it alone. In a drop of semen, there may be sperms from
60 thousand to 2 lacs. But only one out of these is destined
by ALLAH to be mingled with the egg of mother, the process
is called fusion and it becomes the first live and complete
cell and starts moving and multiplying. After some stages
of development, it is called zygote in medical terms. And
this zygote enters the uterus and called embryo in medical
terms and the process of child development continues. Then
after about six to nine months of pregnancy, the mother
delivers the child. Also note that after about four months
of pregnancy, the mother can feel the movements of the child
in her womb. Probably here the religious heads and scholars
are confused and allow the abortion within 4 months of the
pregnancy assuming that now there is life in it. By the
Holy Qur'an and modern medical science, it is very much
clear that the life is destined by ALLAH when the sperm
from father mingles with the egg of the mother. Hence abortion
can be called "Killing of Child" from day one.
There
is no specific instruction about keeping distance in between
children but one can see an ideal situation in Chapter 31
Verse 14:
"WE
had enjoined upon man goodness towards his parents: his
mother bore him bearing strain upon strain, and his utter
dependence and nursing by his mother lasted for two years
….. "
(From
Holy Qur'an 31/14)
