⚠️ Important Disclaimer
Burhan is an educational tool only — we do NOT issue fatwas. While we strive for accuracy using verified scholarly sources, this platform is NOT a substitute for consulting qualified Islamic scholars (ulema) for personal religious matters.
Our AI-assisted Q&A uses these safety principles:
- Educational content only — no personal religious rulings
- Sunni sources exclusively — verified scholarly domains only
- 4-step verification — Search → Retrieve → Verify → Generate
- Always verify — click citations to check original sources
For personal religious guidance (fatwa), please consult:
- Your local Imam or Islamic center
- Established fatwa institutions like Dar Al-Ifta or IslamQA
- Qualified scholars in your community
"Allahu a'lam" — Allah knows best. We acknowledge the limitations of AI and human knowledge.
