Family planning in Islam is allowed, I mentioned that in the first part of that post. A form of contraception was practiced by Sahabah called azl (coitus interruptus.) It is allowed on a personal basis, but I do not believe government should get involved.
No Shahabah has used contraceptives because they fear that their kids will die of hunger, there is no narration that i have come across , many of the Sahabah's were dirt poor and yet have multiple wives and kids , Contraceptive are allowed in case there is a danger to Mothers life , in Islam everything is judge by the intention ( Neeyat ) if you neeyat for using a Condom is that your wife can die hence you pull out before orgasm than its nothing wrong, but if your neeyat to use Condom or Contraceptive is the fear of that I earn less money and I can not feed my kids than its Questioning the Quran and doubting the words of Allah .
Many people are mixing this two things either deliberately or they have no knowledge of Islam or Quran.
I don't believe government should get involved due to weak writ of government and backlash from society.
Govt's job is to provide for its subjects, Abu Bakr RA has gone to war because tribes refused to pay Zakat after Prophets Death, even though Islam was on the weakest at that point but that did not deter Abu Bakr RA to follow up the commandment of Allah, cause he has firm faith on Allah unlike us today . how many rich people exists in Pakistan ? how much their annual Zakat can gather ? we buy 5000 pkr dress for EID that we wear it for occasional but we can not buy a 3000 Pkr dress and donate 2000 Pkr to someone who is in need for Groceries , notice that how people are saying in this thread that people have 4-5 kids and they beg, begging is Haram in Islam but if someone who earn Halal Income he wont be a super rich person, rizk-e-Halal will never be much but it will always be little and if you add up Charity to this which is one of the best ways of worship than you think that we have to see Pictures of hungry kids holding on to 1 Roti ? Photographer is quick to capture a poor kid finding food in trash can but why can't he spend 12 Rupee to buy that same kid 1 Roti ? or spend 100 rupee for bunch of roti and daal ? because if he did that he wont get the Shot to put forward .. in early times when people see something wrong or injustice they stop it, now people record it .
Govt Job is implement rules, and Constitution of Pakistan has to be on Quran as per Jinnah, just today if Pakistan govt make Zakat mandatory and anyone who did not pay were to put in jail , than you will see these people shouting and crying their lungs out ..
The bigger problem than increasing population is mismanagement, corruption, and city planning.
Agreed, this and not just the Govt, but the problem also lies within the structure of Society , Govt gather resources and suppose to distribute to people, but the same people who shed crocodile tears for these poor hungry kids, when a kid come to their Million rupee car for 10 Rupee they will say " Maaf karo ". Tell they to pay Zakat they will say Govt is becoming Islamic extremists , but these people will pose with those Naked hungry kids and post it on Instagram and Facebook with pride . Don't we as Citizens have no responsibility for these people ? or our neighbors ?
