What should you do when you are uncertain about a Marja's Fatwa and have no knowledge or source for their reasoning? Is blind following in such cases justified?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

The Marja' of Taqleed is the most or one of the most knowledgeable jurisprudence's experts,who has done full research and authentic evidence on his verdict. Unexperts can not be certain or uncertain about a Fatwa because they have no experience on juridrudence. Highest medical scientist does need his patients to be certain or uncertain when he has his scientific evidence on what he should do with a certain medical condition. Following the highest expert does not mean blind following but an enlightened following because your reason tells you to follow the most knowledgeable in every subject.
