Ask a Mufti [Complete Set in 3 Volumes].

Muslims in every generation have been confronted with different kinds of challenges. Nevertheless, Islam produced such luminary scholars who confronted and responded to the challenges of their time.

The scholars are the beacon of this Ummah through whom Allah delivers guidance to people. One of the challenges faced today is the gradual upsurge of so-called scholars, modernists and progressive Imams who are issuing legal verdicts that have no basis in the Quran and Sunnah. As a result of this, they are misled and mislead by others also. Considering the need of the time, we present a collection of Fatwas entitled, "Ask A Mufti'' each fatwa endorsed by Shaykh Mufti Saiful Islam.
