Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I’ve always been told that women cannot study the Mufti course as they aren’t allowed to give Fatawa thus we are only allowed to become Aalimas. While I am not at all disagreeing with that, I want to know the specific hadith or Qur’anic aayat where this law was made ( forbidding women from formulating fatwas etc).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/strong><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

Answer:<\/strong><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There is no such ruling specific to men giving fatwas, among the regulations of a mufti is that he or she should be responsible Muslim, trustworthy, sound, and free from any causes of immorality, a jurist of the soul and correct in conduct, alert in deducting and reasoning whether a slave, free, woman, blind or mute if he understands1<\/sup>. Hence if one fits the above criteria, she can peruse becoming a Mufti to help the community.<\/span><\/p>\n
