2802 The Method of Testimony for a Mute Person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the testimony of a mute person accepted through gestures and signs, or is writing in script necessary?
The Shaykh:
It is necessary for him to write his testimony in his own handwriting; because this serves as a substitute for speech in his case. Yes.
The questioner:
And he says, may Allah preserve you, if he is not skilled in writing, what is the solution in that case?
The Shaykh:
We look for someone else, praise be to Allah, who is better at writing. We look for someone else. Yes.
