I need help

Hi mummies,i'm currently 35+5 weeks now,not long till delivery.I'm an unwed muslim mum and i have some questions and rants. Firstly,when my family found out that i was pregnant,they told me to abort or even threaten to "spike" me in order for me to abort naturally.They told me that they don't want to care or look after the baby after i deliver which i say that i'm fine with it cause thru out everything i never ask for a single cent from them at all and its not that i'm arrogant or something but they asked me if the father of the child is taking responsibilities by paying the bills and everything which he did,he bought everything for the baby but now they want to take my baby away from me trying to say that we are not financially stable for a baby and that they don't like the baby's father.I admit we had some issues in the past but we worked thru it. Secondly,i'm currently 24,thinking of moving away from my house,away from my siblings and get married to my baby father after confinement,but i'm afraid that my father disagree with the marriage,can i apply for wali hakim if he does not want to be the wali?and what is the process like? thirdly,its regarding medisave.I might not have enough to pay for my own hospital bill but the baby father do.So is he allowed to only pay for the baby only?and do i have to use my father's medisave to pay for my hospital bill?#1stimemom #advicepls

I have no words for your parents but Insha Allah when they see the baby, their heart & mindset will change? Who knows? For wali hakim, unless your father passed away and you have no brother(s) or paternal uncle(s) or paternal grandfather, yes you can use wali hakim BUT for your case, your father is still alive so die² must be him. Otherwise the nikkah is not valid. This is why some Muslim bride-to-be had no choice but to put up an advertisement in the paper to look for their biological father to be their wali hakim on their nikkah. This part, cannot play². For unwed mums, no you cannot use the baby's father's medisave unless legally married. You can only use yours or your father's. I hope you have a smooth delivery. And may your family reunite when they see the baby. Insha Allah!
