The Ruling on the Profession of Advocacy
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling of the Islamic Shari'ah regarding the profession of advocacy? And what is your opinion, may Allah protect you, regarding what the Imam and scholar Abu al-A'la al-Mawdudi (may Allah have mercy on him) stated about this profession in the final part of his book "Islamic Law and Its Methods of Implementation"? Please inform us; may Allah reward you.
Answer:
I am not aware of any harm in advocacy, because it is an agency in litigation and response, provided the lawyer seeks the truth and does not intentionally lie, just like other agents.
As for the words of Shaykh Abu al-A'la al-Mawdudi (may Allah have mercy on him) that were mentioned, I have not read them.
