Principle: Wherever there is public benefit, there is the Shari'ah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: Is this principle a legal principle, namely, "Wherever there is public benefit, there is the Shari'ah"?

Answer:
This is the meaning of the words of Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him): if you find the public benefit, there is the law of Allah. This is all I know to be from the words of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
