Legal pronouncement in Islam issued by a religious law specialist on a specific issue (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fatwa

(Other definitions for fatwa that I've seen before include "Muslim ruling" , "Legal ruling by Islamic leader, as against Salman Rushdie" , "Islamic opinion" , "legal opinion" , "Islamic sentence as on Salman Rushdie" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
