I simply said they were silent... All the above... Some times you have to ask several scholars just to get an answer... I think the reason they don't answer is they want you to submit to them... Obey them without question..... Scholars don't like difficult questions, they like question like, how many times a day do you have to pray??? If I break my wudu in the middle of the prayer, should I stop praying and make wudu and pray again???? They like questions that everybody already knows the answers to....
