3. Seeking a Fatwaa (religious ruling)

One should do this by saying to the Muftee (scholar capable of issuing a Fatwa): "My father" or "my brother" or "such-and-such person wronged me in this way." "Does he has the right to do so?" "How shall I go about putting an end to it and obtain my right while repelling oppression from myself?" and so on. Likewise, one may say: "My wife did such-and-such to me" or "my husband did such and such a thing" and so on. This is permissible due to the necessity for it, however, to be more cautious, it is better for one to say: "What do you say about a man who has done such-and -such thing?" or "concerning a husband" or "concerning a wife who did such-and-such" (without saying "my"), etc. By doing this, the goal is achieved without having to resort to specifying anyone. However, specifying an individual by name [36] Narrated by Abu Sa'eed AI-Khudree ~ : "I heard the Messenger of Allaah ~ as saying: 'He who amongst you sees something abominable should modify it with the help of his hand; and if he has not strength enough to do it, then he should do it with his tongue; and if he has not strength enough to do it, (even) then he should (abhor it) from his heart and that is the least of faith."' (Muslim) Golden Advice Series 04 is permissible (in this circumstance), based on the hadith of Hind ~ , which we shall mention later, by the Will of Allaah, in which she told Allaah's Messenger ~ : "Indeed, Abu Sufyaan (her husband) is a stingy man."(371 And the Messenger of Allaah ~ did not forbid her from saying this.
