Is there any sin or blame upon one who transmits sound fatwas from reliable websites?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Verifying the authenticity of what is attributed to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, before disseminating it, is an emphasized matter. Caution must be exercised against circulating fabricated and weak hadiths. Transmitting fatwas is only prohibited if the authenticity of their attribution is unknown, or if the source is unreliable. However, transmitting and disseminating fatwas from trusted scholars, after verifying their correct attribution to them, falls under the category of spreading and teaching knowledge.
