"The need of the hour is that your life should be revolutionized. The revolution should not be an individual one but a collective one. The change should be concerning your iman(belief), your morals, your actions, your dealings, your decisions, and your efforts. Your life in every way should become a beacon of guidance and it should become a means of Da'wah."
- Abul Hasan Ali Al-Hasani Al-Nadawi aka Ali Mian rahimahullah

Bismillah:
The following fatwa on contraception shows that there was in fact contraception items during the time of the Prophet Muhammad Ibn Abdullah (Peace Blessings Upon Him) and that zina is zina with condoms or not.--Allah is the Knower

CONTRACEPTION
Reversible
Chemical - the pill which is taken orally spermicidal jellies used locally. Mechanical - use of condom intra-uterine device Physical - coitus interruptus rhythm method Permanent - sterilization operation - tubal ligations - vasectomies.
Question 1
Is the Practice of contraception allowed in Islam? If so, under what circumstances?
Answer
Contraception is permissible on a limited scale for valid reasons - reasons considered by the Shariáh to be valid. The circumstances which will permit reversible and permanent contraception differ.
REVERSIBLE CONTRACEPTION
Among the reasons accepted by the Shariáh as valid for practising reversible contraception are:
(A) Physical weakness.
(B) Sickness.
(C) The wife maintaining her beauty or figure for the sake of her husband.
(D) The couple being on a journey or in a distant land.
(E) Adverse political conditions, e.g. children are forcibly separated from their parents as is advocated by communism; etc.
(F) The couple decide to separate in the near future.
(G) The wife is an immoral person.
There are valid grounds for practising reversible contraception. Poverty or the fear of poverty are not valid reasons for contraception. It is not permissible to practice contraception on account of a fear of not being able to provide for a large family. Such a fear is an attribute of non-Muslims. According to the Qurãn Shareef: 'There is not a living creature, but its sustenance is the responsibility of Allah.'
Similarly desire to curb sexual desire which may stem out of piety is not a lawful ground for contraception. If practised for any reason which is unlawful in Islam, then contraception will likewise be unlawful, e.g. for indulgence in illicit sex.
PERMANENT CONTRACEPTION
Permanent contraception is permissible only if the woman's life is in danger or her health is seriously threatened.

Salam Alaekum Muhammad.
I am aware of the various fatwas on this issue. Our (desertrose and me) discussion was on something totally different and unrelated to this.
I'd prefer if you leave that discussion to me. I believe I can answer most of her queries.
JazakAllah for the help though. :)
Here are some links that I believe will be interested
Hi! Just want to say what a nice site. Bye, see you soon.
