DISCUSSION ON JURISTIC REASONING (QIYAAS)

There are four sources and proofs of Shariah, i.e. the Quran, Hadith, Consensus of the Ummah and Deduction (Qiyaas).

Qiyas/research-Mu’adh Bin Jabal (r.a.)  narrated that some of his companions said, “When Allah’s Messenger ﷺ  intended to send him (Mu’adh Bin Jabal) to Yemen, he asked: “How will you judge when the occasion of deciding a case arises?”  He replied, I shall judge in accordance with Allah’s Book.   He was asked: “(What will you do) if you do not find any guidance in Allah’s Book?”  He replied, “(I shall act) in accordance with the Sunnah of Allah’s Messenger ﷺ .”   He ﷺ  asked, “(What will you do) if you do not find any guidance in the Sunnah of Allah’s Messenger ﷺ  and in Allah’s Book?”  He replied, “I shall do my best to form an opinion and I shall spare no effort.”  Allah’s Messenger ﷺ  then patted him on the breast and said: “Praise be to Allah Who has helped Allah’s Messenger to find something which pleases Allah’s Messenger.”   (Abu Dawud 3585)

Abdullah Bin ‘Amr (ra)  narrated that Allah’s Messenger ﷺ  said: “Knowledge consists of three things: the decisive verses (Qur’an), authentic Hâdîth and prescriptions rightly deduced from the two.  What is beside them is superfluous.”  (Ibn Majah 1/54 and Abu Dawud 2879)

Sayyidina RasulAllah ﷺ said:“Without doubt, my Ummah will never be gathered in misguidance. Whenever you see disagreement, then hold fast to the greater majority.”[Ibne Majah]

The Holy Prophetﷺ  once passed two graves and said, “The inmates of these graves are undergoing punishment, and my transport (a mule) is restless on seeing this. One of them was a shepherd of camels who never protected himself from their drops of urine, and the other was a backbiter. This is why they’re being punished.” After saying this, Rasoolullahﷺ broke a branch into two pieces, placed a piece on each grave and said, “The punishment of the grave will be lessened for as long as they remain green.” – Bukhari Sharif

1.Nothing blocks the blessed vision and eyes of Rasoolullahﷺ . He sees even behind coverings (The punishment of the grave was occurring beneath meters of sand)

2. Through the blessings of the Prophet the mule saw the punishment of the grave and became restless, while our mules go past graveyards day and night but don’t lose any sleep. Thus, if the Holy Prophetﷺ  has to cast a glance on a Wali (Friend of Allahﷻ), the curtains of obscurity are lifted for him as well.

3.The Prophet ﷺ  knows every visible, hidden, former and latter action of every person. He said, “One of them was a shepherd of camels who never protected himself from their drops of urine, and the other was a backbiter,” but neither of them did these things in front of him! Thus, he knows every action and doing.

4.Rasoolullahﷺ  knows how to save someone from Divine punishment and how to remove it. He is aware of all spiritual ills as well as their remedy.

5.Through the blessings of fresh greenery’s Tasbeeh, the punishment in the grave of a Mu’min is lightened. Therefore, if recitation of the Holy Quran or the Zikr of Allahﷻ is made, the deceased will surely gain benefit, because the Tasbeeh of a believer is more superior to that of plants.

6.Even though dry things also make Tasbeeh: the punishment of the grave is not removed by their zikr. For Zikr to be effective, it’s necessary for the tongue with which it is made to also be effective. The Zikr of a Mu’min, however, who has the greenery and freshness of the Prophet’s ﷺ  love, is worthwhile.

7.Placing green plants, flowers, etc. on the grave of a Mu’min is beneficial because the inmates of the grave gain advantage through it. Here, the Prophet placed fresh, green branches on the graves and said, “Punishment will be lessened for as long as they remain fresh.”
