Intercession of a miscarried foetus

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by TheMufti.com

Q. Will a miscarried foetus intercede on its mothers behalf if the mother miscarries at six weeks? I have heard that only a miscarriage after 120 days when the Rooh is blown into the foetus, will the foetus intercede on behalf of its mother. Is this correct?


A. In the case of a miscarriage, there is no restriction of the passing of 120 days for an embryo/foetus interceding on behalf of its mother. The intercession of a miscarried embryo/foetus even at six weeks will still be applicable. (Tahtaawi Ala Maraaqil Falaah 1/598)
