Family Planning In The Legacy Of Islam

In this study, Dr Omran surveys the source books of Islamic jurisprudence from the eighth to the twentieth century in search for views on family formation and family planning. He has reviewed, in each century, the writing of leading theologians in each of the schools of jurisprudence (al-madhahib al-fiqhiyya), classifying their work, comparing their views and referring everything back to the foundation of Islamic jurisprudence namely the Qur’an and the Sunnah (the Prophet’s tradition). The result of this in-depth study is neatly organized in logi- cal sequence in the book.
