Scholars differ regarding the ruling on aborting a fetus before forty days are complete. The more preponderant opinion is that it is permissible if there is an excuse, a benefit, or to prevent an anticipated harm, such as the hardship on the mother due to her age and caring for her four children. In any case, seek Allah's forgiveness and multiply good deeds.
