historical_info = golden_century_events.5.desc.historical_info A fatwā is a formal legal opinion issued by a qualified Muslim jurist, a muftī, in answer to a question of religious law. It does not bind like a court verdict, yet a ruling from a respected scholar carried great moral weight, and rulers often sought one to legitimize their decisions. In the fifteenth century the Ottoman sultans raised the office of şeyhülislam, the chief jurist of the empire, to lasting prominence, and scholars such as Molla Hüsrev and Molla Gürani lent religious sanction to the conquests of Mehmed II. In the Muslim West, the Maghrebi jurist Ahmad al-Wansharīsī issued his celebrated ruling that the Muslims of a fallen al-'Andalus were bound to emigrate rather than live under Christian rule.
