EVERY MUSLIM IS HIS OWN MUFTI & VERDICT SCHOLAR .Sheikh “Muhammad Abduh” (1849-1905)the HEAD OF THE ISLAMIC OFFICIAL VERDICT BODY (MUFTI) IN EGYPT & MOST ISLAMIC COUNTRIES in his time says that Islamic religion totally demolished & turned over & abolished any kind of religious authority or control on any one belief or faith & there is NO RELIGIOUS AUTHORITY TO ANYONE IN ISLAM INCLUDING HIMSELF & the Islamic scholars or religious figures or imams or muftis or their fatwas /edicts/verdicts do not have any kind of religious authority or power or ruling on people belief & the only authority given to them is only civil authority of giving advice & reminders only in good & tender manner without any control on anyone belief ,or his worshipping to ALLAH or his way of thinking , moreover the advice right is a mutual right where anyone regardless of his religious knowledge has the same right to advise the highest ranked imam or scholar& of the Sheikh many proofs to that is that . 1) PROPHET MUHAMMAD (PBUH) WAS ASSIGNED BY ALLAH ONLY AS A MESSENGER & NOT AS A DOMINATOR OR CONTROLLER over people , & this is clearly stated in Quran in many verses , an example is verse 88;21-22 فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَا أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌ ﴿٢١﴾ لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ .the translation is So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder, You are not over them a controller (dominator)----, . 2)the Sheikh also says that ALLAH WILL GUIDE WHOEVER STRIVES TO FIND THE RIGHT PATH Q29;69 وَالَّذِينَ جَاهَدُوا فِينَا لَنَهْدِيَنَّهُمْ سُبُلَنَا ۚ وَإِنَّ اللَّـهَ لَمَعَ الْمُحْسِنِينَ translation” And those who strive for Us - We will surely guide them to Our ways. And indeed, Allah is with the doers of good.”---- Also there is a Hadith thought to be of the few true ones because it complies with Quran , & it says “ Who does what he knows , then ALLAH will guide him of what he does not know” , Also hadith “ Take the verdict from your heart/mind even if others gave you the verdict” ---- . 3) He also says that our ULTIMATE JUDGMENTS SHOULD BE TAKEN FROM BOOK OF ALLAH & USE OUR RATIONALE & THINKING when reading it along with the main Sharia rules of focusing on people interest & averting the harms & if you find someone you think he has good religious knowledge & manners & does not ask you a return for religious advice or makes business out of religious advice , then take his advice after assessing it mindfully & if you did not find this person & STRIVE TO FIND THE TRUTH ,THEN KNOW THAT ALLAH WILL GUIDE YOU SOMEHOW AS HE PROMISED .
