Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If the countries to which we resort have secular courts, is it permissible for us to resort to them and claim our rights from them?

Answer:
Yes. As long as you only take what is your right and do not wrong anyone, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes. And do not let your right be lost. Yes.
