Is the Shari'ah of those before us a law for us in an absolute sense?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, is the Shari'ah of those before us a law for us in an absolute sense?

Answer:
No, not in an absolute sense. If our Shari'ah comes in agreement with it, then it is a law for us. But if our Shari'ah comes in contradiction to it and abrogates it, then it is not permissible to act upon it. Yes.
