Fatwas Are Opinions, Not Laws
The sharia distinguishes between a fatwa and a qaza. The former refers to the opinion given by a mufti when someone consults him on a personal matter. Fatwa literally means opinion and is not legally binding. It is applicable only to the person concerned, who can decide whether to accept it or not. Qaza, on the other hand, means judicial verdict. No mufti is allowed to issue a qaza, which is the prerogative of a State-authorised court and binding on everyone.
