You issue more fatwas!!
Are Muslims nowadays so dazed and confused, so hapless, that they need a fatwa for everything, from how long to brush their teeth to how much wallnuts to put into Ramadan's quatayef?
I don't think so.
But some people seem to find much comfort in letting others think for them.
I sometimes wonder how could my grandmother live her entire life, all 88 years of it, without the need for fatwas? When she was troubled that Payton Place, broadcast then on Jordanian TV, had too much mouth-to-mouth kissing, she didn't head to the local sheikh for a fatwa. She just mumbled something under her breath about my grandfather and left to water her lemon tree before evening prayer.
