    Mas?lik al-?illah in the convention of qiy?s: An investigation of its foundations and contemporary Application
    (University of Western Cape, 2021) Chellan, Waleed; Mohamed, Yasien
    This study examines the foundations of the various methods of identifying legal cause (mas?lik al-?illah). It studies its various theories, spanning the classical and premodern period and investigates its application in contemporary times. The investigation analyses the theories of mas?lik al-?illah while placing the legal cause (?illah) contextually within the convention of analogical reasoning (qiy?s). The findings of this investigation are then used to study practical applications of identifying legal cause, in a selection of three case constructions of qiyas, under the topic of suicide attacks.
