Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: When I look into matters of scholarly disagreement and I do not find a reason to prefer one opinion over another, am I allowed to resort to the matter of inspiration and intuition and rule based on that?
Answer:
No, my brother. If something is difficult for you, ask the people of knowledge in person, by correspondence, or by phone. Today, praise be to Allah, the means of communication have made it easy to consult. Take the phone and call one of the scholars. Yes.
