Usool Al Fiqh- Lesson 12 The proof-ness of the Apparent meaning (Hujjiyat al-Zohoor) Applications of the apparent meaning being proof on verbal evidence Attached and detached contextual elements or clue (QAREENA)
The proof-ness of the Apparent meaning (Hujjiyat al-Zohoor) • The indication of the meaning in the level of conceptual or the release of the word (TASAWORIYA) should match the level of verification or the serious intention of use from the speaker (TASDEEQIYA) • This common element means that when a sound mind speaker says a word, then he wants to pass a message in the mind of the listener, so he will use the apparent meaning, which is the closest meaning the listener could think of to that word, which is the literal meaning in the language system, or the meaning which has a literal meaning in the custom of the listener.
The evidence of this common element • What is the evidence for the rule which says: The apparent meaning is proof? • The Companions of the Infallibles (AS) had a norm or a lifestyle or a practice (SEERA) which is to rely on the apparent meanings of the words of Quraan and the words of the infallibles (AS). • This practice was acknowledged by the Infallibles (AS), if it was wrong they would have mentioned some thing.
Applications of the “apparent meaning being proof” on verbal evidence • When do we implement this common element? We can take three cases and check: • The word has only one meaning like Allah. (NO) • The word has several equal meanings like break, from breaking to the break in the class. (NO) • The word has two meanings one is obvious and other is non obvious. (YES), such as literal and metaphorical meaning for Lion.
Exercise • What about this sentence? • I went to the ocean to hear his talk. • The ocean has metaphorical meaning which is the scholar. • The talk is used in Arabic as a metaphor for the sound of the ocean or the waves. • This sentence requires a clue which will help the listeners mind to understand the indication.
Attached and detached contextual elements or clue (QAREENA) • We spoke about this in previous lesson. • The attached clue is found in the same sentence. • The detached is found in another sentence. • The indication of the QAREENA or the clue overtakes the indication of the apparent meaning.
