Who decides if life begins at conception? Usually it’s fundamentalists and extremists who insist on that, and as a mainstream Sunni Muslim, I’ve not heard convincing evidence that Jewish, Christian, or Muslim texts support that position. In fact, I know that in Sunni Muslim tradition there is wide disagreement on when ensoulment of a fetus occurs.

And let’s assume, for the sake of argument, that life does begin at conception. Isn’t the life and/or welfare of the mother also important? And who would you want making such a specific determination, a healthcare professional or Ron DeSantis?
