What is the Islamic method of avoiding child birth?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Assalaam alai kum, Respected Mufti Sahab, My question is that, what is the permissible method of avoiding child birth, in Islam? Can my wife use copper-T ? Please advise as soon as possible. Allah Hafiz.

Answer

(Fatwa: 6144/1736=B/1429)

If her health is weak, she unable to bear the hardships of pregnancy, she fears unbearable troubles in case of pregnancy, or any religious Muslim expert doctor diagnoses it, then in all such cases, it will be allowed to use contraceptives temporarily like pill, condoms, ointment etc for the recovery of health. If there are no such cases, then it will not be allowed to use these contraceptive methods temporarily as well, and it will be against the will of the Shariah.
