قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) إِذَا مَاتَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ وَ فِي بَطْنِهَا وَلَدٌ يَتَحَرَّكُ فَيُتَخَوَّفُ عَلَيْهِ فَشُقَّ بَطْنُهَا وَ أُخْرِجَ الْوَلَدُ وَ قَالَ فِي الْمَرْأَةِ يَمُوتُ وَلَدُهَا فِي بَطْنِهَا فَيُتَخَوَّفُ عَلَيْهَا قَالَ لَا بَأْسَ أَنْ يُدْخِلَ الرَّجُلُ يَدَهُ فَيُقَطِّعَهُ وَ يُخْرِجَهُ إِذَا لَمْ تَرْفُقْ بِهِ النِّسَاءُ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from wahab Bin Wahab, from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Amir Al Momineen<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘When the woman dies and in her belly is a moving child, and it is feared upon him, so split open her belly and take out the child’. And he<sup>asws</sup> said regarding the dying woman, and her child is inside her belly, so it is feared upon her: ‘There is no problem if the man (her husband) inserts his hand, cuts it off and extracts it, when the women are not gentle with it’.
