A Comparative Study of the Words of Common Meanings In the Quran & Sunnah and their Effects on the Shariah Texts

قرآن و سنت میں مشترك المعانی الفاظ كے نصوص شرعیہ پر اثرات كا تقابلی جائزہ

Abstract

This research paper provides a general overview of the rationalization/interpretation of Shari’s texts in Islamic jurisprudence as words may have multiple meanings that has led to different interpretations between the Companions and later jurists. Therefore, the scholars feel the need to determine the appropriate meaning so they categorized the words into Nas, Muffaser, Muhkam, Mutashbih and Muawwal etc. The purpose of this categorization is to deduce a single definite meaning from these commonly used words. So the eminent researchers have discussed tawil, importance, conditions, various types and examples of retionlaziton in latter portions of the study.
