Q: More than 35 years ago I went with another female neighbor to one of the houses next door in which there was a woman in a state of miscarriage. The fetus was in its second or third month and when it fell down, it was about a three cm small piece of meat.
We, my female neighbor and I, tried to inspect the fetus to make sure that it was a fetus and nothing else but while doing so, we separated the head from the body unintentionally, what are we supposed to do
?
A:
If the reality is as you have mentioned in your question, there is no sin upon you in this regard because life was not breathed into this fetus until this time. (Part No. 7; Page No. 239) May Allah grant us success. Peace and blessings be upon Prophet Muhammad, his family and Companions!
