  7. FIQH

  8. 1: Literal meaning The term of fiqh is used in the literal sense to mean knowledge and understanding al-fahm. Al Razi says fiqh is understanding the purpose of the speaker from his speech. the majority of the scholars describe the fiqh asthe absolute understanding Mutlaq al fahm. Therefore understanding, fahm and fiqh are synonymous Definition of fiqh

  9. Cont. • From linguistic aspect. • The word of fiqh has been used in the Quran in various occasions: • (قالوا يا شعيب ما نفقه كثيرا مما تقول) (هود: 11: 91). • (They said: O shu'ayb, we do not understand much of what you say) (11: 91) • And the prophet (pbuh) • من يرد الله به خيرا يفقهه في الدين • He for whom Allah wills His blessings is granted the understanding of din.

  10. Technical meaning • The preferred definition of fiqh is as follows: • "The knowledge of the legal rules (Al Ahkam Al Shariyyah), pertaining to conduct that have been derived from their specific evidences”. • معرفة الأحكام الشرعية العملية المكتسبة من أدلتها التفصيلية. • we examine this definition in the following points:

  11. Cont. • The meaning of (knowledge) in the definition means to be in position to provide the Islamic ruling by exercise the ijhihad. • It has also the meaning of readiness to know things. • (The legal ruling) in the definition means the different Islamic ruling such as obligatory and prohibition. • this segment is a restriction to the wider meaning of the legal ruling, which excludes all the other Ahkam such: 1: the rational rule such as the sum is greater than its parts. 2: rules which perceived by senses such the knowledge of sweet of the honey 3: rules which are known by experience and custom such as the fire burns and hurts. • These rules are not classified under the Islamic ruling; therefore the meaning of legal ruling is very narrow in this discipline.

  12. Cont. • (Pertaining to conduct) means the Islamic ruling related to the deeds of people and their physical acts. • the concept of the deed is very wide which include the following: 1: physical act such as the act of writing. 2: the act of qalb (heart) such as intention, and love and hate. 3: the act of lisan (tongue) such as speech or statement of ijab (offer) and qabul (acceptance) in the sale transactions. • (Have been derived from their specific evidences) which means acquired from the primary individual text such Quran (verses) and Sunnah (hadith).

  13. Conclusion • We conclude the following points: • Fiqh is the knowledge of the Islamic ruling pertaining to conduct of the people. • these conducts include the physical acts, the heart acts and the tongue acts which can be observed in form of speech or statement or world. • الجوارح ـ القلب ـ اللسان • The person who is qualified to acquire this knowledge is al faqih(the jurist), therefore the other scholars are not qualify. • The fiqh is derived from specific evidence found in the Quran and Sunnah and other sources.

  14. Cont. • The fiqh as knowledge is not a combination of individual opinion and point of views base on the pure reasoning, but it is governed by the rules of interpretation (Usul fiqh). • the early definition of fiqh was base on Abu Hanifa definition which is: • (the knowledge of soul, its right and obligations معرفة النفس ما لها وما عليها • which gives a very wider scope of this discipline. • however the scholars narrow down the meaning of fiqh to be more focus and precise as we mentioned above.

  15. Distinction between fiqh and shariah • The word Shariah has a very wide meaning compare to fiqh. • Shariah consist from law, rules, regulations, commands, obligations, guidance, principles, ideology, faith and behavior which govern the human being in every aspect of life. • The Shariah includes all aspects of human life in this world. • The Shariah is meant for two different worlds, happiness in this life and in hereafter.

  16. Cont. • Shariah is the whole divine law and values as given by Allah. • fiqh is the laws extracted by Muslim jurists from the sources of Islamic law. • fiqh contains human involvement which is required as juristic interpretation comes in. • The term “Islamic law” refers to fiqh, and can be used as well to describe Shariah in the general meaning.
