Significance of Fiqh in Islam
In Holy Qur’an, the word Fiqh is used to signify deep understanding of matters especially those matters which are related to religion.
It is mostly used to mean the understanding of the words of someone else and, for religious matters, the words of Allah and His messenger.
For Fiqh, there is again a difference in terminology, similar to that mentioned about the Sharia. The early scholars of Islam would use Fiqh to mean the knowledge and the understanding of the guidance, the rulings, and the way of life Allah prescribed for us.
In other words, Fiqh is our understanding and knowledge of Allah’s Sharia. Scholars have confined the usage of the word Fiqh to the knowledge and understanding of the guidance, the rulings and the way of life regarding the actions only, excluding the areas of belief and moral character.
This terminology is represented by the famous definition that Fiqh is “the knowledge of the Shari`ah rulings which are related to actions from its detailed sources.” In this episode we explore the significance of Fiqh in Islam.
