Assalamualaikum. How should one ask questions , without revealing ones sins. Thank you
Islamic Ruling & Answer
Walekumussalam,
One should ask a question without mentioning oneself, and instead use a general way of speaking. For example, say: “If a person does this, what is the ruling?”
In this way, you can learn the ruling and also keep your matter private.
