Demonstrations, Contingencies, and Returning to the Rules of Sacred Law and the Texts
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah reward you. Some people say that the demonstrations happening now are a contingency (nāzil), and that in cases of contingency one returns to the rules of sacred law rather than the texts. Is this correct?
Answer:
Are there any rules of sacred law without texts? There are no rules of sacred law unless they are based on the texts. As for those that contradict the texts, they are invalid rules, not valid ones.
