We investigate the spin Hall effect (SHE) in a van der Waals (vdW) ferromagnet Fe5GeTe2 (FGT) with a Curie temperature $T_{\rm C}$ of 310~K utilizing the spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance method. In synchronization with the emergence of the ferromagnetic phase resulting in the anomalous Hall effec…
