Islam not against family planning – Cleric
An Islamic scholar, Alhaji Muhammad Hassan, says the concept of family planning has been spelt out in Islam as contained in the Qur’an and tradition of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) long ago.
Alhaji Hassan said this in Abuja at 4th Nigeria Pre Family Planning Conference 2016 (Faith Leaders Response).
The cleric, who represented the Secretary General of Ja’amatu Nasril Islam (JNI), Dr Khalid Aliyu Abubakar, said women in Islam are expected to wean their children after two years.
