Question

I have no any children since I got married 8 years. Doctors advised us to take test tube baby. Is it Jaaiz according to shariah?

Answer

We do not recommend this. However for pious offspring recite the following dua seven times after your five daily Salaah:

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

References (Arabic / Urdu sources)

رَبِّ هَبْ لِي مِن لَّدُنكَ ذُرِّيَّةً طَيِّبَةً
