Azhar cleric criticises non-specialists for issuing fatwas
Al-Azhar
Cairo - MENA
Al-Azhar Undersecretary Dr. Abbas Al-Shouman has slammed non-specialists who issue Fatwas without knowledge.
"Such Fatwas have harmed the religion and led to shedding the blood of Muslims and non-Muslims alike," Shouman said in a keynote speech during an international conference on Iftaa in Cairo on Monday.
He called on Islamic countries to determine entities which are authorized “to issue Fatwas to minimize the chaos of fatwas.”
He called for increasing conferences that discuss new fatwas and refute fatwas issued by extremist groups.
Fatwa in the Islamic faith is the term for legal opinion or learned interpretation that a qualified jurist or mufti, can give on issues pertaining to the Islamic law.

Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
