A Direct Channel for Readers and Institutions

Every week, messages arrive from students working through a question of fiqh, from imams preparing a Friday address, and from editors chasing a quote before a deadline. Different needs, one inbox.

Write to [email protected]. That address reaches the people who actually read and reply — not a routing maze.

You are welcome here whether you are asking after a single hadith reference or proposing a translation project spanning months. Say what you need plainly. Clear questions get clearer answers.

What to Include in Your Message

A good message saves everyone a second round of email. Before you hit send, gather the essentials.

• The heart of your question or request in the first two lines. If it is a scholarly query, name the topic — prayer during travel, inheritance shares, a specific narration.
• Any source you are already reading, so a reply can build on it rather than repeat it. A link to the page on this site helps.
• Your deadline, if you have one. Journalists especially: state the outlet and filing time up front.
• Language preference, since correspondence moves comfortably between English, Urdu, and Arabic.

Reader, Business, Media, and Partnership Inquiries

The same address serves everyone, but a line naming your category moves your message to the right hands faster.

Readers and students

Ask your question directly. Personal matters are read with care and kept private. If a reply points you to an existing article, it is because the fuller reasoning already lives there.

General and business inquiries

Publishing, reprint permissions, licensing a translation — describe the scope and intended use. Requests to reproduce material for teaching are usually welcomed when attribution is clear.

Press and media

State your outlet, the angle, and your deadline in the subject line. A working journalist on a tight clock gets a faster read than a vague enquiry.

Partnerships

Educational institutions, mosques, and da'wah organisations proposing collaboration should sketch the commitment involved. The most productive partnerships so far have grown from modest, well-defined starts rather than sweeping proposals.

Scholarly Scope and Response Expectations

This site's work sits within the Hanafi-Deobandi Scholarship tradition, and replies reflect that grounding. On matters where scholars have long differed, you will get the reasoning and the range — not a single verdict dressed as the only one.

Two honest limits are worth naming for this kind of correspondence. Email is not the place for a binding fatwa on a complex personal case that turns on details only a local scholar can weigh in person. And volume means some messages wait several days.

Replies come as time allows. Detailed research questions naturally take longer than a quick reference check. Patience is appreciated, and thoughtful questions are worth the wait on both sides.

Helpful Pages Before You Write

A little browsing sharpens the question you eventually send.

So: is your question one the site has already answered, or one that genuinely needs a reply written just for you?
