Revealed Laws prior to Shariah of Islam & Fatwa of Sahaba Revealed Laws Prior to Shariah • General rule: Laws revealed before Islam are not applicable to the Muslims (except as mentioned hereunder) Quran refers – 3 forms 1. Quran may refer to the Previous Shariah and make it also obligatory on the Muslims. Exa., fasting was prescribed on the earlier nations and has also been prescribed for Muslims (2:183). 2. Quran (or Sunnah) may refer to a ruling of previous Shariah and may abrogate it. Exa., some restrictions on food on the Jews have been withdrawn from Muslims (6:146). Muslims can not follow previous Shariah in these respects. 3. Quran may mention a ruling of the previous Shariah without mentioning whether it is upheld or abrogated (for instance, 5:35, 5:48). Majority of Jurists consider these to be part of Shariah of Islam which should be followed. Fatwa of Sahaba • Fatwa (opinion or ruling) of Sahaba is indeed very important and deserves highest consideration • Fatwa of Sahaba means an opinion reached by a Sahaba by way of Ijtihad Who is a Sahabi? • Majority: anybody who met the Prophet (SM) while believing, is a Sahabi. • Minority: "Suhbat" (continuity of companionship) is a requirement to call person Sahabi of the Prophet (SM) Fatwa of a companion is a source of guidance which merits careful consideration (though not binding except in case of their clear Ijma).
