Fatwas

A fatwa is an authoritative legal opinion or ruling issued by a qualified Islamic scholar or religious authority in response to a specific question or issue. It provides guidance on how Islamic principles and laws apply to particular situations, helping Muslims understand how to act in accordance with their faith. Fatwas are not legally binding like laws from a government but carry significant religious weight and influence within the community. They can address various topics, including worship, morality, social issues, and personal conduct, serving as a resource for Muslims seeking religious clarification.
