Al Fatwa

Al Fatwa

A number of strange Fatwas, issued by few sheikhs, have been declared recently leading to huge controversy and heated arguments among many groups especially youth – such as the fatwa related to breast-feeding adults, and the fatwa related to getting blessings from the prophets’ urine.

These Fatwas, and many others, lead religious authorities in some Arab countries to adopt regulations that limit issuing Fatwas within certain official entities, in an effort to eliminate chaos. These official actions generated, in turn, a backlash within many circles.
This TV documentary follows many controversial Fatwas, explains the different reactions they provoked and discusses their impact on religious entities in some Arab countries.
