The Collective Fatwa
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is your opinion, Your Eminence, on the statement that says: The affairs of the present age have become complex and intertwined, therefore the fatwa must come from a complete team comprising all specialists in the aspects of the problem or case, including the jurist?
A: The fatwa must be based on the evidence of the Shari'ah, and if the fatwa is issued by a group of scholars, it is more complete and better for reaching the truth, but this does not prevent a scholar from issuing a fatwa based on what he knows of the pure Shari'ah.
