So much certainty and not give proof
Question
Assalaamu alaykum,I find it quite strange that you answer questions with so much certainty and not give proof for things that you say. some times you give a ayah or so but I am left with fatwas and no proof. why did you say oral sex is destestable and not give proof and so many other questions. How are people suppose to obey Allaah without knowledge. May Allaah bless you for your efforts.
Answer
Assalaamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuhu
People ask us to issue rulings based on our knowledge. They do not request substantiations for our rulings. Furthermore, the insight to understand Shari substantiations requires one to exhaust academic studies in Shariah. Often, no knowledge or little knowledge leads to misunderstandings.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
