Mosques have washing facilities. God Helmet. The foundations of his theory have been criticized in the scientific press. The Big Story. Associated Press. If it is confirmed in the early period of pregnancy that a foetus suffers from a defect that can’t be treated and that will cause great suffering to the child, a number of scholars would say that it is permissible to abort, provided that the pregnancy is less than 120 days old. Role of Patience – Islam attaches great importance to patience and it is the focus of about 200 verses of the Quran and referred to indirectly in many others. Islam is the state religion of Maldives.
