Seek knowledge before making decisions or giving advice

This hadith is about the importance of having knowledge before issuing a verdict. It was narrated by Abu Hurairah that the Prophet Muhammad said that whoever gives a fatwa without any basis or knowledge will have their sin on them. A fatwa is an Islamic ruling given by an expert in Islamic law and it must be based on evidence from the Quran and Sunnah. This hadith serves as a warning to those who give out rulings without proper research and understanding of the religion. It teaches us to always seek knowledge before making decisions or giving advice so that we can make sure our actions are in line with Islamic teachings.
