3- Our Need for New Fiqh (3): Dr. Ihssan Baadarani

Our call for the need for new Fiqh is not, as some have imagined, merely a fleeting whim driven by the love of prominence and the allure of fame, or an unenlightened drift behind movements that prevailed at the beginning of the nineties of the last century, advocating modernization and contemporaneity!
Instead, it is a link in a long chain of earnest research, seminars, conferences, speeches, books, and more.

Nor is the call for our need for new Fiqh, as others have also misconceived, a call for a new religion! Such an accusation, which was sufficient during the Abbasid era to imprison someone for heresy, is enough in our time to condemn someone for disbelief, exile, and to annul their marriage..

Our call is in essence an invitation to revive the science of the objectives, goals, and constants of Sharia, to outline our neglected authentic Arab-Islamic identity, and to establish a system of ethical and behavioral values for individuals and communities. It clarifies an indispensable principle stating: “Islam and sovereignty are twin brothers,” a call that has never been absent from the Quran and Hadith. It originates from the fixed laws of the universe and aligns with the changing needs and interests of humans. It aims to restore the method of consultation and dialogue, and the approach of arguing in the best way, not only with those who deny Islamic Sharia! The goal is to correct their distorted and deviated ideas about it, rectify their hostile judgments against it, but also with Muslims themselves, who have become like orphans at the tables of scoundrels in the media, their trade being rejection and illusions, accusations, issuing judgments, and misleading the common people.
