What is the reason for the long time it takes to respond to questions, and does this affect seizing opportunities in projects, and are fatwas inflexible with reality?
The delay in answers on the site is due to the high volume of questions. As for the matter of strictness in the answers, we regulate matters with the balance of , its proofs, and the sayings of scholars. Whatever necessitated prohibition due to (excessive uncertainty), corruption, unlawful consumption of people's wealth, or impurity is indeed prohibited, while observing the Sharia rules. A Muslim must regulate their life with the balance of Sharia, not the other way around, for "It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter, that they should have [any] option in their decision." (Quran 33:36) The verses also alert us that what we dislike may be good for us, and what we love may be bad. We must submit to the rule of Sharia, with certainty that our well-being lies in compliance. What a person misses in this worldly life should not cause sadness, for "So that you not grieve over what has escaped you." (Quran 57:23) The weakness of Muslims is not due to the prohibition of impurities, but rather to abandoning religion and imitating disbelievers. A Muslim should embody good manners and choose the best words, for "A believer is not a slanderer, nor a curser, nor an obscene person, nor one who uses foul language," and "Nothing is heavier in the balance of a believer on the Day of Resurrection than good character."
