Quranic Principles of Universal Law on the Quranic Exegesis
Öz
Islamic study of law is based on the four sources of
law. The Quran is the primary source of Islamic law. The Sunnah or the
life of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon Hım) is the secondary source of
Islamic law. The Quranic states, Indeed in the Messenger of Allah
(Muhammad PBUH) you have a good example to follow (Quran Al Ahzab
33:21). The Ijtihad (reasoning) and Ijma (consensus of the juristic
opinions) are the tertiary sources of Islamic Law.
The Mujtahid
(Islamic jurist) distills the legal principles that govern Islamic law
to form their reasoning and reach a consensus for legal matters at hand.
The Islamic Jurists study the Quran to draw their frame of reference
for the fundamental precepts of social, ethical and moral principles.
This is called the Tafsir or the exegesis of the Quran. The Prophet’s
(PBUH)Sunnah is studied under the principles of Ilm Ul Hadith or the
Science of Hadith. Ilum Ul Hadith follows the authenticity principle or
Nas. The Islamic jurists study the chain of references of any hadith to
establish its Nas for the purposes of any legal texts.
The Islamic
law that has emerged through the doctrine of Ijtihad is heavily
influenced by of the scholarly efforts and the credibility of the
Mujtahids. Mujtahids are followed for their Islamic legal judgments
through the principles of Taqleed (following). Ijmah is the settled
case-law of Islamic Jurisprudence. Ijmah exists as the extension of the
Timeless Law of the Creator due to its time-distance interpretations
relevant to the legal problem of contemporary times.
It is settled
Case Law in Islamic Jurisprudence that the doctrines of Islamic Law
remain constant while the science of interpretation is according to the
relevance of the time. The reason is the time-distance from the initial
revelations of the Quran which offers Universally applicable principles
of law that are relevant through all times. This paper attempts to study
the underlying principles of the exegesis of the Quran to under the
body of law which emerged from the exegesis based on its nature of
Universal applicability. The basis for our study is the seminal works of
al-Sadr, Falsafatuna and Iqtisaduna. Al-Sadr’s Falsafatuna has deep
influences from Ibn Khaldun’s social dimensions of Qurans exegesis and
the Universal nature of the Islamic Law based on its primary source of
Quran.
