Infertility & Islamic Alternatives Q1: I can’t have kids, and I saw that IVF isn’t allowed (https://t.me/womensbenefits/836). Are there any halal options? A1: Yeah, one beautiful option is to sponsor or take care of an orphan. You’d raise them with love and care, just like your own – but you wouldn’t give them your or your husband’s last name, since that’s not allowed in Islam. Basically, you raise them without changing their identity. Q2: Can I adopt a boy? A2: Yes, you can. But once he grows up, he’ll be considered non-mahram to you, so you'd have to wear hijab around him. Q3: Is there any way to avoid that? A3: Yes – if you can breastfeed him, that creates a milk relationship, and then he becomes your mahram. Q4: If I can’t get pregnant, how would I be able to breastfeed? A4: Great questionβ€”check out this post for more info on that: [https://t.me/womensbenefits/965] Q5: Any other options? A5: Definitely. If you can’t breastfeed him yourself, a close relative like your sister can. That would make the child your milk nephew or niece. Q6: What if we adopt a girl instead? A6: Same idea applies. She should be breastfed by you or someone close to your husband, so she becomes a mahram to your husband too. That way, she won’t have to wear hijab around him when she’s older.
