The lawful is clear, and the forbidden is clear, and between them are matters of doubtالحلال بين والحرام بين وبينهما أمور مشتبهات

, are these matters to be acted upon, and what falls under them?

Answer:
Matters of doubt are those in which there is disagreement; they are the issues disputed among scholars due to the convergence of evidence on them and the conflict of evidence regarding them: are they from the lawful or from the forbidden? In this matter, a person must hold back until the correct path becomes clear to him, and he should not proceed while it remains doubtful. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
