Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah reward you, what is the criterion for what falls under Shari'ah policy? Because some of our professors say that codifying the age of marriage falls under Shari'ah policy, while others say.
Answer:
My brother, do not contradict the Sunnah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). The marriage of young children is indicated by the Book of Allah, the Sunnah of His Messenger, and the consensus of the scholars. So whatever contradicts the Book, the Sunnah, or the consensus is rejected. It is not part of Shari'ah policy. Shari'ah policy must agree with the Book, the Sunnah, and what the Muslims are upon. This is Shari'ah policy. Yes.
