The Ruling on Seeking Dispensations
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: What is the ruling on following dispensations?
Answer:
It is not permissible to follow dispensations. A dispensation is taken recourse to in cases of dire necessity, when you need it, such as eating carrion. Eating carrion is a dispensation that Allah has permitted if you fear death from hunger. You restrict it to the time and the amount that preserves your life only, and you do not continue eating carrion; rather, you take from it only the amount of dire necessity that preserves your life. Dispensations are restricted to their specific contexts and are not increased or transferred to other places, because they are exceptions granted for exceptional circumstances, as they say, they are not permanent. Yes.
