Islamic view:
If anyone slays a human being unless it be (in punishment) for murder or for spreading corruption on earth - it shall be as if he had slain the whole of mankind; whereas, if anyone saves a life, it shall be as if he had saved the lives of the whole of mankind (5:32: in Ebrahim, 102)
Ebrahim comments:
From this verse it is evident that every human being has the right to be born, the right to be, and the right to live as long as Allah (SWT) permits. No one may be deprived of life except for a legitimate crime as discussed above. The fetus is regarded by all schools of Islamic law has having the right to life, as indicated by the fact that the death sentence on a pregnant woman can be carried out only after she has given birth. (102)
According to Ebrahim, this right to life is absolute in Islam: it cannot be overridden, even in cases of rape or concerns regarding fetal deformity (103).
SO THEY SEE EVERY ABORTION HERE AS US MURDERING MANKIND.........
