Ignore the bad URL I posted previously.

The correct URL for fatwas in progress is http://www.islamonline.net/livefatwa/english/oldresult.asp

with category sections like:
http://www.islamtoday.com/fatwa_archive_main.cfm

and the Game Show Home Version (Ask the Imam) at:
http://www.askimam.org/

Or read about fatuous fatwas at:

http://westernstandard.blogs.com/shotgun/2005/07/a_fatuous_fatwa.html
http://www.pipelinenews.org/index.cfm?page=cairfatwa.htm

(example of fatuous fatwa below--probably convened before a journey with women)

Terror Supporter Signs Anti-Terror Fatwa
How phony is the fatwa against terrorism released by the Fiqh Council of North America? So phony that they allowed Fawaz Damra to sign it.
In 1989 Damra said, in a panel discussion moderated by accused Islamic Jihad leader Sami al-Arian: “Terrorism Alone is the Path to Liberation.”
