Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Abu 'Abdullah, says: Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan, where did the jurists derive the classifications? They say this is a rukn (pillar), this is a wajib (obligatory), this is a sunnah (recommended practice), and this is a mustahabb (recommended).

Answer:
Based on the evidence found in the Book and the Sunnah, they build the fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) rulings upon them: the obligatory, the recommended, the forbidden, and the disliked. They build them upon the evidence from the Book and the Sunnah. Yes.
