Effect of Time and Place on Ijtihad - Al-Shia The Scientific and Cultural Website of Shia belief Effect of Time and Place on Ijtihad 2022-12-27 344 Views Ijtihad , Fiqh , Jurisprudence rulings All subjects of rulings can be influenced and changed by time and place in the general sense, and when the subject and criteria of rulings change, the verdict necessarily changes, because the ratio of the subject to the verdict is similar to the ratio of cause to effect, and this includes all rulings on worship and transactions in the general sense.

And we have only one fixed injunctive ruling, which is the obligation to preserve Islam. Contents 1- Pure traditional Ijtihad and jurisprudence Imam Khomeini’s view on Ijtihad and pure traditional jurisprudence Rulings on upcoming issues Lack of authority of ijtihad of the personal verdict Sources of ijtihad The role of reason in inferring rulings The role of custom in recognizing customary subjects Revising the social rulings of Islam due to changing of the subject The influence of time and place in Ijtihad does not mean changing the nature of divine rulings No vulnerability of rulings for changes There are three schools of jurisprudence and Ijtihad regarding the effect of time and place on Ijtihad and changing, generalizing, and allocating the subject of rulings (in non-fixed rulings): 1- Pure traditional Ijtihad and jurisprudence Proponents of this jurisprudential thought believe that any change in the subject of rulings is not permissible and should only be relied on the appearance of verses and hadiths, and for reason – in deriving and extracting rulings – is not only a place but relying on it is a sin, And the rule of rational implication must be forgotten.

This jurisprudential thought is the same school of jurisprudence that has been proposed by the Akhbaris, and the head of this group is Mohammad Amin Astarabadi.

The result of this school of jurisprudence is the isolation of Islam and Islamic jurisprudence, as a result of which, Islamic jurisprudence will lose its maturity and dynamism, and it would seem that Islam is apathetic to the changes in society and the requirements of time and emerging issues; And on this jurisprudential basis, time and place have no role in ijtihad.
