The Shaykh : The profession of law in Islam: if a person seeks to establish the truth and refute falsehood, it is good and commanded, because it involves removing injustice from the oppressed and assisting the owner of a right in obtaining his right. However, if a person defends falsehood by being the one who prevails in argument, it is forbidden. It depends on the intention of the lawyer. The time is up.
