Rejected Legal Opinions
Some people break into the field
of juristic deduction and legal opinions, that results in destroying themselves
and leading others to Hell.
¨Some of them say,
“A legal thing (Halal) is the thing that is suitable to society’s values
and traditions, and the prohibited thing (Haraam) is the thing that is
unsuitable to society’s values and traditions.”
¨And others advise
you and say, “Do not be confused. The Messenger has said, ‘Consult your heart. Piety is that about which the soul feels at
ease and the heart feels tranquil. And sin is that which wavers in the soul and
causes uneasiness in the breast.’”
In reply to that God says:
﴾And if you obey most of those upon the earth, they will
mislead you from the way of Allah. They follow not except assumption, and they
are not but falsifying﴿ Chapter of the Cattle. Verse NO 116
﴾Then is one to whom the evil of his deed has been made
attractive so he considers it good [like one rightly guided]?﴿
Chapter of the Orginator (Surat Faatir).
﴾Or have they
other deities who have ordained for them a religion to which Allah has not
consented?﴿
Chapter of Consultation (Surat Ash-Shuraa).
﴾Have you seen he
who has taken as his god his [own] desire, and
Allah has sent him astray due to knowledge and has set a seal upon his hearing
and his heart and put over his vision a veil? So who will guide him after
Allah? Then will you not be reminded?﴿
Chapter of Bowing the Knee (Surat AL-Jathiyah). Verse
NO 23
●And the Prophet says, “Both legal and illegal things are obvious.”

Hadith 5
*When we reply to that according
to mindfulness, we say:
It is impossible for the
society’s values and traditions to be a source of legislation; they change from
time to time and differ from one place to another, and Islam does not accept changing
its provisions and acts of worship.
