No Muslim family should engage in birth control: Erdogan

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said that no Muslim family should engage in a mentality which includes population planning or birth control, pledging to increase posterity.

“And I say it clearly that we will increase our posterity and reproduce generations. Population planning or birth control; no Muslim family can engage in such a mentality.

We will follow the road that my God and dear Prophet [Muhammad] say,” Erdogan said, while speaking at the 20th anniversary of the foundation of the Service for Youth and Education Foundation of Turkey (TـRGEV) in Istanbul.
