How can I contact a sheikh for a fatwa to clarify matters of what is lawful (halal) and unlawful (haram), which have become confused for me?

The way to know what is permissible () and what is forbidden () is through deep understanding (fiqh) of Allah's religion. The permissible is clear, and the forbidden is clear, and between them are doubtful matters that many people do not know. However, scholars know their ruling through a text (nass), analogy (), or presumption of continuity (istishab). Therefore, you must learn the rulings of the Sacred Law, and what is unclear to you, ask the people of knowledge about it; for the cure for ignorance is asking.
