How Aminah answers
- She answers questions of the deen from her sources, and shows where each answer comes from, so you can read them yourself.
- Some questions touch on penalties in Islamic criminal law. For these she first asks how you come to the question: as research, about yourself or someone you know, or something else.
- Her answers on Islamic criminal law or on Islamic historical narrations are for research and self-learning: they report what the sources and the schools hold. No answer justifies harming, threatening or punishing anyone, whoever gives it, and neither does hers. The law that applies to you is the law of the place where you live.
- Where a question suggests that someone may be at risk, she gives the help above first.
- Questions on these grave subjects, and questions from someone who may be at risk, are kept on a separate path with its own checks, apart from her ordinary answers.
What Aminah is, and what her answers can and cannot be, is set out once, in the terms.
