The effect of the purposes of Sharia on the change of Sharia rulings at the alsahaba

Abstract

It is certain that the Sharia of Islam came as a mercy to people, bringing benefits to them and warding off corruptions in their life and hereafter. Evidence for this is that the Qur’an and Sunnah are full of justifications for legal rulings with regard to judgment and interests. That is why scholars of fundamentals took care of this topic, and wrote books about it, so I collected this research to show that the judgment of God Almighty is intended to achieve the interests of the servants in their religion, themselves, their mind, their offspring, and their money. The scholars of fundamentals divided the interests into interests that the Shari’a considered, interests that it abolished, and interests that were silent about it, and it did not consider it by a special text and did not cancel it. The scholars of fundamentals found that the ruling may change according to the change in the interest of the servants, so they said: The ruling rotates with its cause, whether it is present or not, so wherever the cause is found, the ruling is found, and wherever the reason is absent, the ruling is absent. Accordingly, some provisions are subject to change, and they are provisions that are dependent on self-interest reasons. As for assumptions, duties, and taboos, neither change nor ijtihad deals with them.
