Assalamu alaykum,

I also would like to hear opinions/shariaa on the abortion issue.  I
once heard few friends of mine discussing whether or not abortion is
'haram' in Islam.  They came to the conclusion that it is not clear if
it is 'haram'!  Anybody who knows better than this please reply.

('haram' <=> violates the rules (major ones) of Islam)
