"And indeed We sent messengers before you and
made for them wives and offspring" (al-Raad 38)
Allah also says: "And kill not your children for fear of
poverty. We shall provide for them as well as for
you. Surely, the killing of them is a great sin" (al-Isra
31)
Birth Control
The fact is that the Prophet did not give such an order.
Instead, when he learned from one of his companions
that he resorted to contraception, the Prophet said
clearly that no method of contraception would stop the
creation of a child, should God will that the child be born.
As such, no method of contraception can stop God's will
being fulfilled.
