==Victory over other Religions by Having Children==
{{Quote|{{Abu Dawud|11|2045}}|Narrated Ma'qil ibn Yasar: A man came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said: I have found a woman of rank and beauty, but she does not give birth to children. Should I marry her? He said: No. He came again to him, but he prohibited him. He came to him third time, and '''he (the Prophet) said: Marry women who are loving and very prolific, for I shall outnumber the peoples by you'''. }}
{{Quote|{{Ibn Majah|9|3|9|1846}}|It was narrated from Aishah that:
the Messenger of Allah said: “Marriage is part of my sunnah, and whoever does not follow my sunnah has nothing to do with me. '''Get married, for I will boast of your great numbers before the nations'''. Whoever has that means, let him get married, and whoever does not, then he should fast for it will diminish his desire.” (Hasan)}}
{{Quote|{{Ibn Majah|9|3|9|1849}}|It was narrated from Samurah that:
'''the Messenger of Allah forbade celibacy'''. Zaid bin Akhzam added: “And Qatadah recited: 'And indeed We sent Messengers before you (O Muhammad ), and made for them wives and offspring.'”(Sahih)}}
{{Quote|{{Ibn Majah|9|3|9|1848}}|It was narrated that:
Sa'd said: “'''The Messenger of Allah disapproved of Uthman bin Maz'un's desire to remain celibate'''; if he had given him permission, we would have gotten ourselves castrated.” (Sahih)}}
{{Quote|{{Ibn Majah|9|3|9|1863}}|It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that:
the Messenger of Allah said: “'''Marry, for I will boast of your great numbers'''.”(Sahih)}}
{{Quote|{{cite web quotebox|url= http://www.islamqa.info/en/ref/11885|title= ‘Azl (coitus interruptus) and using birth control pills|publisher= Islam Q&A |author= Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid|series= Fatwa No. 11885|date= |archiveurl= http://www.webcitation.org/query?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.islamqa.info%2Fen%2Fref%2F11885&date=2013-07-04|deadurl=no}}|Firstly, what the Muslims should do is to try to have as many children as they can, because this is the command of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), who said: “Marry the one who is loving and fertile, for I will be proud of your great numbers before the nations.” (Narrated by Abu Dawood, 2050; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood, 1805).
Having more children increases the numbers of the ummah, and increasing the numbers of the ummah is a source of its glory, as Allaah says, reminding the Children of Israel of His blessings:
“and made you more numerous in man-power”
[al-Isra’ 15:6 – interpretation of the meaning]
And Shu’ayb said to his people:
“And remember when you were but few, and He multiplied you”
[al-A’raaf 7:86 – interpretation of the meaning]
No one can deny that having a large number is a source of pride and strength for the ummah, contrary to what those pessimists think who say that large numbers causes poverty and starvation in a nation.
If the ummah increases in number, puts its trust in Allaah and believes His promises as mentioned in the aayah, 
“And no moving (living) creature is there on earth but its provision is due from Allaah”
[Hood 11:6 – interpretation of the meaning], then Allaah will make things easy for them and will grant them independence of means from His bounty.}}
