Abstract

Fiqh is not only regarded as the sole authentic declaration of religious thought worldwide but also acknowledged as the ultimate solution for seeking divine orders. "Sources of Shariah" are the means through which Islamic jurists derive Islamic law. Generally, in the books of Usul al-Fiqh, four primary sources of Islamic law are mentioned: the Holy Quran, Sunnah, Ijma (consensus), and Qiyas (analogy), and there is a consensus among the majority on these being the sources of Shariah. Dr. Rashid Shaz is among contemporary Muslim thinkers and researchers who argue that the "stagnant juristic heritage" is a significant reason for the decline of the Muslim Ummah. In this context, he raises questions about the long-standing, agreed-upon interpretation of religion passed down through generations. One of these questions, as highlighted in his book " Islam mein fiqh ka sahi maqam," pertains to the misinterpretation and misapplication of the "four principles." Therefore, the perspectives of the majority and Dr. Rashid Shaz on the four principles differ; the majority do not view the interpretations and applications of the sources of Shariah as reasons for the decline of the Muslim Ummah. This article will present the stances of both the majority and Dr. Rashid Shaz on the four principles.
