The principles prepared by the Fuqahaa are deduced from the Quraan Majeed and Mubaarak Ahaadith

Q: Muslim jurists, 14 centuries back, have expounded certain new principles to carve out Islamic Law, coinciding with the modern theories of law. Can you please let me know what are those new principles? Are they rules of interpretations? Or are they juristic deductions? Or are they both rules of interpretations and juristic deductions?

A: The principles which the Fuqahaa have prepared to deduce masaa’il from the Quraan Majeed and Mubaarak Ahaadith have also been extracted from the Quraan Majeed and Mubaarak Ahaadith.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
