Question

Why nowadays conceiving a baby is very difficult? Even though no problem in husband and wife ! Is the change of lifestyle is the main cause?

Answer

Life and death is in the complete control of Allah Ta'ala. If Allah Ta'ala has decreed that one will have children, then nothing can stop the will of Allah Ta'ala. As servants of Allah Ta'ala, we should always be pleased with the decree of Allah Ta'ala. However the husband and wife should continuously make duaa to Allah Ta'ala to bless them with pious offspring.

And Allah Ta'ala knows best.
