  1. Shari ’ah Standard No. (29): Stipulations and Ethics of Fatwa in the Institutional Framework Appendix (C) Definitions ■ Judgment entails the issuance of a verdict which is binding to the two litigants. In this sense, Fatwa differs from judgment as the latter entails offering a Shari’ah ruling without enforcing commitment towards it. Fatwa also differs from education, because the latter is not restricted to a specific incident. Therefore, Fatwa is quite distinct from an initiation to teach Shari’ah rulings, or a mere act of seeking knowledge about hypothetical incidences. 752
