Answering professionals' questions about their professions

“During my dawah work, I have encountered this problem more often when I meet professionals like bankers, engineers, and lawyers. They usually, after reading your books, ask specific questions about their profession and want to know if you have said something about the profession of law or banking system. I am usually lost at that time. What should I answer them at that time?”Asked by سسٹر سلمہ, پاکستان
