To all the "Praise God" crowd coming out on Twitter in the wake of the US Supreme Court overturning Roe V Wade:
Safe abortions are supported under Judaism and Islam. A lot of Muslims believe that the fetus doesn't gain a soul until after around 120 days, so abortion is permissible around that time.
So, denying people an abortion goes against their religious rights, which is against the US's own constitution.

Don't be ridiculous - abortion before that date is permitted by Islam, not mandatory.

I'm a Muslim, so I know it's permitted in around 120 days therefore if a Muslim living in America wants to perform an abortion and they are told no because of the ruling, how do you think they're going to react?Frustration wrote: ↑Fri Jun 24, 2022 7:06 pmDon't be ridiculous - abortion before that date is permitted by Islam, not mandatory.

Irrelevant. If abortion were mandated by Islam and the law denied it, you could make a case that would be denial of freedom of religion. But that is not the reality.

Denying them an abortion is still a violation of thier religous freedom because it is explicitly permitted by the religion.Frustration wrote: ↑Fri Jun 24, 2022 7:06 pmDon't be ridiculous - abortion before that date is permitted by Islam, not mandatory.

Put the ideology down and step away slowly.

Most Christians and Christian denominations don't oppose abortion. It's pretty much just the Catholics.
