Advice to students of knowledge to learn two important sciences: the principles of hadith and the principles of jurisprudence, with examples cited.

The Shaykh : Therefore, I recently pointed out that I advise students of knowledge to study the sciences of the principles: the principles of hadith and the principles of jurisprudence. I gave some examples there to show that it is not easy for a person to understand the intent of the Wise Lawgiver in a specific text unless he has encompassed as much as possible of the texts from the Book and the Sunnah. I gave a clear example in this regard, such as His saying (Glorified and Exalted is He): [Al-Ma'idah 5:3]. If a beginner in the study of the Qur'an, who has no knowledge of the hadith of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), were asked: "Is the carrion of fish permissible?" he would rush to argue with this verse, and the verse is explicit in prohibition: [Al-Ma'idah 5:3]. This fish is carrion; therefore, this is forbidden by the text of the Qur'an. But if he had looked into the hadith, he would then say: "Allah has spoken the truth; He forbade carrion, but the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) clarified that a type of carrion is limited to two kinds of animals, namely fish and locusts, which are excluded from this Qur'anic text. At that point, he would be correct in issuing a ruling that excludes these two types of carrion from the prohibition of the Noble Qur'an regarding carrion. This is an example. The research, of course, has many branches. I have researched this to remind people of the necessity of studying the sciences that help the student of knowledge to understand the Book and the Sunnah as close to the truth as possible.
Prohibited to you are dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine
حُرِّمَتْ عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَيْتَةُ وَالدَّمُ وَلَحْمُ الْخِنْزِيرِProhibited to you are dead animals
