A question was posed to the noble Shaykh 'Abdul 'Azeez al-Bura'ee (May Allaah preserve him) concerning aborting a child in pregnancy due to fear of poverty, which he expressed in detail the impermissibilty of this action in Islaam (Click Here to Listen to - Abortion Due to Fear of Poverty). The woman then followed up her enquiry by asking the ruling on putting the child up for adoption.
This series of questions include:
"Is it a condition for the adopted family to be relatives of the child?"
"Is it a condition for the apodted family to be Muslim?"
