The answer

The position of issuing fatwas is a great one, and only the qualified should undertake it. Honoring the and showing him proper etiquette is a religious obligation. It is not permissible for the questioner to object to a based on personal inclination; rather, he should present his concern respectfully. In this era, ignorance and a lack of etiquette towards scholars have become widespread, which necessitates caution and an appreciation for the scholars and their status. The Mufti is not infallible, and his standing should not be diminished due to a mistake. Rather, his mistake should be addressed by people of knowledge according to Islamic guidelines.
